Characters that are not the norm or a bit out of the ordinary are always a challenge as an actress. You learn more by using different tools for those type of characters. They are always much more fun to play and much more interesting. They take you places that you wouldn't necessarily go in your everyday life.

I sort of fall in love with every character I do; you have to understand how they became what they've become, whether they're the ugly kind or the very beautiful kinds of characters.

I love acting but I also love writing, especially comedy.

I'm quite an optimist, quite happy in life, quite smiley.

I'll try and get through as much as my voice and nerves and knees will let me.

You think that adulthood will hit and you'll suddenly be more capable. But that doesn't happen, ever, does it?

One of the things I love about acting is that I can enter into these other people's lives. But going back to being me at the end of the day is very important, too. That process of remembering who I am.
