I'm always interested in are stories that challenge people.

You're revealing something about yourself in a more exaggerated, more fleshed-out way, and it awakens something in you that maybe you didn't know you had.

Trust your gut. You know yourself, so don't let somebody else tell you who you are.

I try to get roles that challenge me in what I can do and who I think I can portray. For me, it's about creating characters with really fascinating stories, because that's what I like to watch on TV.

There's something about music that makes me feel like a different person, that feels like an escape.

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

I've worked on shows where the lead actor doesn't know their lines, doesn't care, and it affects everybody - the crew, the director, the other actors. It's definitely a responsibility.
