In film and television you have to be able to see the whole picture in a different way than you do on the stage because you shoot out of order and you're working with technology.

And I think because there is an essence of me that cares about other people and what other people think then that then makes me seem very sweet and polite.

It's very hard to become an actor in film and television, you have to have such perseverance and you have to really believe that if you have any sort of talent at all, you will find work one day.

And I think right now I'm just enjoying finding something such as One Weekend a Month where I can really resonate with this woman's history and her situation.

And not to mean that I think I'm some special person, but I think we're all here for a very specific reason and once you figure out what that is then you're on the right track and we're all on the ride together.

I believe over the last six years now, I've been learning in between actual acting moments on the show.

I think you have to have different tools for each job - you know producer is very different from a director and very different from an actor.
