Both my parents are chefs I grew up in a restaurant and was always surrounded by cooks. I love food.

When I grew up in Pittsburgh in my parents' restaurant, I was almost like a country bumpkin.

I hope Hong Kong and Asia wants to hire American Asian actresses as much as Hollywood has been hiring Chinese actors from Asia.

I've always dreamed that George Lucas would call me one day and ask me to be in one of the 'Star Wars' films.

I'm always like, "Maybe I can drive the car. I can still fly the plane!"

People who have had family members killed are able to forgive the murderer because that's the only way they can move on.

I'm trying to show I'm a trained actress - I can transform myself into different characters. I'm not just an ingenue.
