I grew up in a suburb of Ohio, in a small town, and I resonated with that small-town feeling where everybody knows your business.

Whatever the situation at hand, thats what Im dealing with and trying to be true to it in that moment.

As much as I don't want to admit it, I really am a people pleaser. If I throw a party at my house, it's hard for me to relax. I'm too obsessed with whether everyone's having a good time.

I really wanted to do things that weren't comic. It felt like finding people who can see this other side to me.

I come from the place of thinking, 'Whatever works for people' - and if you haven't been exposed to anything else, you really don't know better.

In my early 20s, I didn't even know what the Groundlings was. I had no idea. But I know how to break down a script and work on the character.

I told my agents that I love Holly Hunter and Frances McDormand and all of these women who are good at doing comedies, as well as dramas.
