I have a lot of anxiety about the red carpet. As a woman, it's uncomfortable to be in a position in which people are judging you, looking at what you're wearing, and criticizing you - not necessarily in a negative way.
I have an hourglass shape, and I think it's important to understand your body type and your personality type. Then make whatever is on trend and in fashion work for you.
I was raised to pursue my passions and pursue the things that I love, and to just live life to the fullest.
I'm definitely excited about roles where I get to wear cool costumes. I love Game of Thrones, and would love to do something like that. I'm totally a dork.
I actually got started in acting when I was in pre-school. I was really into dance and performing, so my mom had me in dance classes, and then I got involved in a local theater company.
It's fun because I really do love meeting new people. Comedy can be so different from show to show and from writer to writer and actor to actor. People don't set out to make a bad show.
You never know when you're on a show if you're actually going to love it. For the episodes that I'm not in, I read them, but I try to just forget it, as long as it isn't important to my character. That way when the episodes air I get to watch it like a fan and actually enjoy it.
Maybe down the road, I can see myself being part of the creative process, but acting is definitely my first and true love.
Acting is where my heart is. I love acting.
In terms of a character, I would love to play a fairy. I think that would be really fun.
I would love to work with Guillermo del Toro and J.J. Abrams. I think they are creative geniuses that are constantly producing great work, and they're two people that I would just love to work with.
If I could play any superhero, I'd probably want to play Wonder Woman. She's pretty awesome.
I've learned the importance of speaking up for myself and voicing my opinions and my ideas. I'm definitely a shy person.
I am so happy, each and every day that I come to set. Some days, I'll be there 12 hours, and it feels like five minutes have gone by.
I grew up doing theater, so I'm used to working with people where you can definitely ask another person a question or advice or say, "Hey, let's try it this way," or "What do you think if I did it this way?"
Sometimes the most incredible shows don't do well because they're ahead of their time or people just don't get into it quickly enough.
I have a dark sense of humor, so I definitely like to work on stuff like that. I do enjoy working in comedies where I can create a fun and broad character.
I definitely prefer working in comedy over drama, but at the same time, when it comes to comedy, I tend to prefer comedies that have a great sense of truth to them and that come from an honest place.
I was young, not married, didn't have kids and I was like, "Why not just try for something now and see what happens while nothing's tying me down?" And, I've been fortunate, since I graduated, to work in the industry and keep on working.
One of the things I've learned - before I would go on a show, I was like, "Oh God, I hate that show" or "That show is gonna get canceled." But now after being full-time on a show, you see how difficult it is and how much work goes into it and how so many decisions are based on finances or people's schedules or talent or location issues. It's a miracle that anything gets made.
