I went to a little liberal-arts college in Missouri called Truman State University.

Sometimes doing a movie for a short period of time is better than committing eight months to a television show.

I studied theater in college, and I really wanted to be an actress and play a lot of different roles. Then I made landing on a television comedy my main focus. But when you become an actress, you want to play a variety of things.

It is part of me; I could definitely be that if I wanted to, I just choose not to. I mean, I am an actress at my core, and I think we're all a little crazy.

I don't have any type of sketch-comedy or stand-up background.

Even in college I tended to get cast in the comedies more. It was what I liked doing.

Sometimes acting is really cool because it forces you to exercise certain muscles in your personality that you wouldn't normally be called upon in life.
