When I learn martial arts, my master will have me try a punch for a week and he will keep saying, 'No, you don't have it. No, that's not right.' When he finally says, 'Yes, you did it,' it's a wonderful moment. You worked on it. You got it.

I just want to make one really good movie a year. And when I die, to know I was honest as an artist.

That was the action figure I was playing with. I grew up having this fantasy of being a superhero, being Princess Power.

I am a strong Ukrainian girl, that is why I work a lot.

At the end of it all, it's my little movie library, and you see aspects of me through that.

Unfortunately, the small comedies I've done have hardly seen the light of day, which is kinda sad. Dirty Girl was a lot of fun, and I'm so glad it got picked up in Toronto. People really liked it!

Music for me is something I prefer to keep away form the whole business part of my life. I feel like everything I do, in a way, has some sort of business around it. So with my music I can have my privacy. If people don't have to pay for it then I think they can be a little more open to new ideas.
