Dance, vaudeville, drama, movies - as a child I loved everything that went on in a theater.

I was always interested in the arts as a child - drawing, painting, and piano - but acting became a favourite. I was a major theatre geek in high school - if I wasn't in the drama room at lunch rehearsing, I'd be in the art room finishing up some type of project.

As a teenager, I was really interested in drama and art. I did painting and drawing. I did some acting and loved theater.

I did some theater as a kid for fun. But it was really by chance that I landed into acting.

While I was growing up all over, in all my different schools, I was always doing theater, auditioning for plays.

I grew up seeing a lot of theatre, and it was theatre that really seduced me into acting - not film or television.

I started performing in high school. There was a pretty great drama department at my school, and that's when I started doing plays and musicals.

I love theater. I grew up doing theater.

I had done some commercial work in junior high and stuff - my mother would bring me into the city, and we'd go on these crazy castings. Acting was something I always dreamed of doing... it was my passion when I was young.

I just love performing so much, and I threw myself into every musical theater production that was going in my home town and at school. And then, I went to the National Youth Music Theatre, which was really a galvanizing experience for me when I was 17.
