I want to shoot some indies, some independent features that give me some space to play a little bit.
In Chicago, I'd audition 3-4 times a week, but when I got out to L.A., there were, like, 4-5 a day, and my skin got really thick.
There are so many talented actors in Chicago, I have to go see shows when I'm there. A lot of these actors, who I've seen when I'm in Chicago in theaters, are technically amazing and never have an opportunity to showcase it on a bigger medium.
It's better to take sobriety with you when you work.
I'd love to shoot some of these bigger movies as they come, and I'll go back to theater at some point again.
I'm a fan of, like, the Coen Brothers, with the darker humor in it.
Sometimes I sneak out into the streets alone, like Princess Jasmine in 'Aladdin.'
I have a lot of traditional values I follow personally, which was hard to deal with when I first moved to L.A.
I think the reason I got into it is because you get to be someone else. There are, like, two percent of people in the actors' union who actually make money off of it, so I feel very blessed to be here.
I'm a White Sox fan, and the Blackhawks.
I was really into theater, really into music a lot.
