I like exploring both the light parts and the dark parts of a single person. And all of those shades tend to come out most acutely in stories about families.

In real life, I don't fall in love with the guy who wines and dines me, I fall in love with the flaws and the humanity.

I kind of moved out of the town I grew up in as quick as I could. I left right after high school.

There are the jobs you get that do something for your confidence, like "I can do this with my life" kind of thing. And then, there are the jobs that maybe bring a certain level of awareness about you as an actor where other people feel like they can hire you.

I don't want to put a pause on the rest of my life; I'm really enjoying getting older and the wisdom that comes from that.

And I think a lot of us have fantasies of going back to where we're from, or when we do go back we're so nostalgic about it.

I feel lucky to be an actor because you always learn something from each part you play.
