I really struggled moving from New Zealand to the United States. I still have very strong ties to my home, and it took me a couple of years to feel settled in Los Angeles. Fortunately, I have a great group of friends and found the places where I enjoy spending my time. Finding beaches to get to made me feel much more plugged into the environment here.

I've always wanted to be an actor that explores different genres and different characters.

I think listening to people is helpful.

I know that I don't have a perfect performance that I bring to set. I bring ideas to set, and I'm more than willing for those to be affected and be malleable, based on what the other person gives me.

I think you can't really reach the emotionally intense stuff without having built a genuine light, playful, connected energy, to begin with.

I think having healthy relationships makes me feel much more confident and available to do good work as an actor.
