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.

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

Nobody acts purely selfishly.

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

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.

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.

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