When I finished my residency in New Orleans, I went to L.A. where I would work as a doctor during the day, and then at night I would actually go to The Improv and do standup, all the while kind of cultivating my comedy resume.

Every project you do, you hope you learn something more as an actor.

I always just loved to laugh. I always just loved it as a kid.

You can have all the tools in the world but if you don't genuinely believe in yourself, it's useless.

I have a very simple approach in career: You work with the people you love.

I'm really trying not to feel I'm getting spoiled, because the way I look at it, since I'm not a main character of any of the movies, I realize just how fortunate I am.

I really realize the more movies I do just how important - it's so cliché when people say it, because everybody says it nowadays - but it's so important to keep it grounded. I totally understand what that means.
