I have a real no-nonsense dad who taught me how to be resilient at a very young age.

I love the theater. I love being on stage; I love the live audience. I also love dressing up and all of the make-believe.

Any actor will tell you that you go where the work is, especially when you have children.

Being a parent is the hardest job ever in life.

Being away from home was tough, but the challenge and the thrill of being on Broadway was so fulfilling, and I'm thankful to my husband for making it possible and holding it down at home.

Once there are more African Americans and Asian Americans behind the scenes as producers, writers, and directors, I think more inclusive casting will happen.

I love Malcolm Lee and jumped on the opportunity to work with him as a director.
