I love acting, and it was really important to me to give it a real shot.

I lived in Vancouver, where they film so many things. So it gave me a good shot at it.

In fact, if they didn't let me commute, I would not have taken the role because I wanted to graduate high school with my classmates. I remember my agent's jaw dropping when I told him if I couldn't commute I didn't want the role.

I don't smoke, I try to eat right, and I love doing yoga and going for hikes with my dog.

I've slowly gone back, later on in life, to fish and then chicken and then, last year, red meat.

I think it's because it's so different and it takes risks. Plus, it's really smart humor. It gives the audience credit in terms of not needing to tell them when to laugh. I love that about the show. There's no laugh track.

I'm having the time of my life. I've never looked forward to going to work so much every day. I'm loving it; it's great. It's what I love to do and I wouldn't want to be doing anything else.
