It's a miracle to be an actor and to know that you have a job to go to a year from now is a rare thing, so I think peace of mind and financial stability come with that. Hopefully I'm a little wiser and have a little more perspective in my life than I did then.

'Project Runway' was my guilty pleasure while my son was napping or nursing.

You just hope that you will get the opportunity to do what you love and pay your bills, and that is being a success as an actor.
I would never have called myself tech-savvy.
But I've become completely obsessed with taking photos on my iPhone. I have like 400 apps.
