I learned to cook by watching and helping my mother in the kitchen. I also learned by trial and error. Even though I'm big on recipes, I love to make up my own dishes and when you take a risk in the kitchen, you learn a lot about food!

I don't need to work right away. I'd rather wait for something really good; to be excited about a role, or a director, or a project.

If I feel confident wearing something, I think it translates in photographs. It changes my demeanor and posture.

I'm kind of a globetrotter. I've been traveling since I was born and living in different locations.

You need to know everything and feel 100 percent safe so that you can live and breathe in a role and so that you feel comfortable taking risks and trying new things and being bold. If you don't feel comfortable, if you're in a scenario that's not conducive for that kind of environment, then that's when you don't do well.

I was kind of a jock in school. Beauty wasn't something I spent a lot of time on.

I'm not just going to accept something because it's a lot of money. I'm an artist; content is incredibly important to me.
