Here's my take on Instagram: It's so ridiculous that people can go on and play characters, and none of it [should be] taken too seriously.

I get told I'm too good-looking for a lot of roles. They don't write roles people would think I'm supposed to play as often as they used to - the rom-com pretty-boy storylines.

If I have to be objectified in my twenties to be taken seriously in my thirties, I'm doing something right.

As long as my work continues to speak for itself outside of what I look like, I'm okay.

I went to art school in Chicago for a year at Columbia College. I had this whole master plan of getting into sustainable development and green architecture and construction, so I wanted to go to business school and then get my masters in construction and development.

I've learned so much from just being in film industry. I definitely want to stay in front of the camera and learn more from as many people as I can. Somewhere down the line, writing, directing and producing would be fantastic.

Someone that is not close with their family is an immediate deal breaker for me.
