I love music, it kind of comes naturally and has always been a part of my world.

I think you are the best you can be when you feel free, when you feel open. So I think keeping that mentality, keeping positive, is key.

Having an open dialogue, in any creative atmosphere, is really important to feeling free to tell the story the best way you can.

Although I really like the people I travel with, family is just different, and having them around at all times is a really nice thing - and a luxury.

Being you is the only thing worth spotlighting.

One of the scariest things to me was, I really feel like I'm a pretty even-keeled person with a good outlook and respect level, but in that environment, deep within the character, you see how easy it is to go to that place because you're one-upping each other and it's this heavy environment filled with young men trying to make an impression. It's dangerous. It's something that I became very conscious of afterwards.

Stop hoping, start believing.
