I'm fascinated with psychology, and with why a person walks the way they walk or why they walk into a room the way they do or why we are the way we are, and it's not exclusive to the psychology of a character.

I fell in love with 'Star Trek' after J. J. Abrams's movie. I'm so into that.

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

So much of how you look at yourself in the mirror reflects how you feel about yourself, and how you comport yourself.

Dance has always been a really important thing for me, so being able to physically express the characters through music and dance is like another layer to things.

I love performing. I love doing improv. It's a totally terrifying experience, but it's something that I've always felt so strongly about and that I'm kind of obsessed with. And just as an actor, it's a great exercise. It's a great playground, you know, to try things out and to work on your skills. Because the mandate of improv is kind of the same as acting: It's all about your scene partner, it's all about being present and in the moment and exploring together as a team, a collaboration.

Sex isn't hard, but intimacy is terrifying.
