It's great to do theater and have the live response and know what that can bring to a performance. I like to juggle as many mediums as I can.

The reason I feel like I act is because you get to live a million different lives in one. I don't have to go about my life.

It is so important to remember that, while I love my job, there are other fantastic avenues to explore in my life.

Sometimes I can inhabit a feisty, vicious character. Sometimes I can inhabit a painfully shy British girl, or whatever it might be. I'm able to step into these other parts of myself. I feel like, as long as I keep doing that in my career, and I keep tapping into different parts of the human condition, that's all I ask for.

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.

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