I approach every role from scratch.

Every role sort of teaches you how to prepare for it.

It's through working with a lot of first-time directors that I realized that people learn on their feet. Everybody works on something for a different reason. Everybody has got something new to learn on these sets, and you don't have to know everything, the second you start.

My roles aren't huge, but it's a start.

I go by intuition. Work-wise, that means asking myself if a role will push me outside my comfort zone, challenge me to learn something new.

It's good to be in a role when you can learn something new.

I have learned to pare down what I do and still be effective and strong in a role.

I don't really prepare for roles. I just kind of do them!

Making me into a role model is placing too much importance on what I see as a work in progress.

I just try and do the best with every role I get to do. Hopefully the experience in itself is a good experience and people will want to work with me.
