So I'm studying ballet every day and really training so people will see me as a ballet dancer, which no one's seen before.

I have a tendency to make my partner my everything and that is unfair and it doesn't end up working out because you can't rely on that one person to fulfill all of your needs emotionally.

I always say, "Don't let a 'no' or even a dismissal defeat you, let it be the fire that makes you want to go. Every time someone says, "No," that makes me even more determined. That's one of the things I want to try to teach young people. Oddly, the other thing I want to teach the young people is to get a hobby. That's what I first say: "Do something that brings you happiness other than acting, because this business is so fickle." I make blankets and stuffed animals. I don't know. I'm a weirdo.

Even when I’m not working, I’m still working on something because I just want to create something.

I've never had to deal with ageism - so far - in my career; I have been able to navigate my career and getting older and the roles and opportunities that have come to me.

I love to teach, I love to draw, I love animals. So I don't feel like I am relying on one thing to lead me in my career.

Everyone's "journey" is different. Obviously with mine, I've had some amazing breaks, but then you have to be ready to seize the moment when the timing and the luck line up. You can't be afraid. You have to be open. I feel like I've always been a leaper, and I've always leapt into things without thinking.
