I grew up in a trailer park in Bellingham, Washington.

Making a movie is you're really only as good as your weakest link, so when everyone's working at their best and it actually comes together, it's an extraordinary thing because it doesn't always.

You can change your fate. You can sit back, or you can go after your life and all that you want it to be.

My biggest growth has been sitting with things that are uncomfortable and dealing with them.

As a performer, I don't like to play the same thing over and over. I like to play it and let it go and move on. That's also why television hasn't really been something that I've done.

If there's someone that I just wan to work with in the future, I set a general meeting and I say, "I'm a really big fan. I want to meet you. I'd love to collaborate with you someday and hopefully you'll remember that for the next time you have something that I could be right for."

I had to fight my whole life to break out of my circumstances. That's just part of my makeup.
