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.

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

I love doing sitcoms. I love doing comedy. I love the whole shooting match.

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.

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.

When I moved to New York out of college, that was my goal. To be a stage actress. And to do dramatic works. Like Madea, and Night, Mother, and Sam Shepard, and all that kind of stuff. Thats what I really wanted to do.
