At 10, I was intrigued by surgery, I wanted to be a surgeon for a long time. I love doctor shows and surgery shows. Blood is not an issue for me. I even took pictures once of me getting my blood taken.

My mom was [a hippie]. We weren't allowed sugar cereal. We weren't allowed processed foods - except Van de Kamp's fish sticks. We never locked the front door.

Get out there, even if it's a hike or something, just break up the monotony of going to the gym.

I'm not going to give up doing interesting things. I'm going to do it as long as I possibly can and hopefully have longevity in this business.

Being someone I'm not for a period of time and loving every minute of being in someone else's skin.

I just want an opportunity. If you don’t like the audition, don’t hire me! But if you don’t want to even see me - that’s hurtful. And why? You know nothing about me!

I work with a couple charities called Serving Those Who Serve and Rebuilding Together. Both are supportive of veterans when they come home.
