Starting at 16 years old I was in boardrooms of older executives pitching talk shows. I wanted to be the youngest talk show host for a really long time.

I like to think of myself as a very passionate person, and as very determined. So, if I set my mind on something, I definitely stop at no end to find within myself the power to keep going, whether that involves thinking of a new approach to a problem, or physically challenging myself.

I think it's important to relate to one another about issues that you're having, because the second you open up and someone else says, 'Oh, me too. I feel the same way,' then all of a sudden, you feel more at peace with yourself and you can feel more confident with who you are.

It's really important to stand up for yourself and not always agree with what people say if indeed you don't feel that that's true

I'm drawn to roles that have real substance, that aren't just the victim or the teenage girl or the girlfriend.

Life is only as meaningful as you fool yourself into thinking it is.
