I always kind of wanted to go into healthcare.

I need more personal time and, given my extensive work in health care, I want to pursue that interest further.

I am not really sure how I got interested in medicine.

I am interested in getting people to use the healthcare system at the right time, getting them to see the doctor early enough, before a small health problem turns serious.

My background is in health care.

I want to drive down health care costs.

There are so many choices I made simply for health insurance. Is it the ideal role I wanted to play, or the TV show I wanted to be a part of? No, but it let me afford to go to the doctor.

When I'm engaged in a story my health is not a big deal, but when I'm not doing anything, if you sit me down, I can get tied up in my own medical dramas. So I much prefer to work.

My legacy is going to be in affordable health care. I am willing to invest in developing that model and the policies around it.

One thing I love is to do children's hospital visits.
