I'm an actor and I like having attention. There's a reason I like being on stage and in front of the camera, and it's that interaction.

There's something really unique about Orphan Black is that it has a lot of female leads, so it's about a lot of women's stories, but it's not women’s stories in terms of trying to find a guy or keep a guy; it's about entirely other things.

I have trouble sleeping, at the end of the night. There's a lot of stimulus and my brain is processing a lot of different arcs and personalities. I'm always processing things, so I don't sleep.

Just to be on set with Amy Poehler, who's one of my heroes, was a total dream come true.

My mom's a translator, my dad's a woodworker; that's the world I grew up in, that's the world I'm most comfortable in. The whole idea of Hollywood or any of that other stuff that unfortunately goes along with film, that wasn't part of my upbringing, thankfully.

As artists, you always want to push yourself. There's always new territory.

I love people, watching people interact. It's a lot of psychology. We learn about ourselves by watching other people's lives on the screen.
