I'm Italian and Spanish and Jewish. I'm 100 different things meshed into one. I think that shows girls that uniqueness is beautiful. They can look at me on a magazine cover and see me in a movie and say that they have someone they can relate to.

I'm a relationship girl. I would rather be long-distance than not have a relationship at all.

Talent doesn't appear over night. It takes a lot of work and honing your craft, but also don't give up because people may say you're not good enough. I had so many teachers in high school and college saying "You're not going to make it. You're not. You can't." Luckily I had enough people around me who said I could.

I love my onscreen frenemy, Dianna Agron! Having the opportunity to work so closely with her has been amazing.

I have such a passion because I adore animals so much.

Theatre just fills me up so much.

New York is who I am.
