As an actor, I was taught, from an early age, that secrets are the most powerful thing that you can have on screen, and that what you withhold is as important as what you share.

Exercise is great for endorphins, and I come from a very outdoorsy upbringing, so that means a lot to me.

I don't know what another actor is going to give me, on the day, and I don't want to be so hard and fast in my technique that I'm not open to what's coming.

I think listening to people is helpful.

I am inspired by working professionals who find lots of time for family and friends. It is easy to get caught up in a career, and I personally aspire to maintain strong connections with the people who matter most to me.

For me, I've just always known that women were more than capable of being able to direct.

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