I got into medicine at university, then deferred a year to see. Then I started acting and just never went back to university.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I went to UCLA as pre-med. When I was there my freshman year, I auditioned for a play and got it, and I was so passionate. I just loved acting so much that I decided to switch majors and pursue acting.

When I was doing 'Neighbours,' I was aiming to go to university, then go to med school, but I realised I could make a better living from acting.

I remember being in college knowing I didn't want to go anymore. I wanted to try and become an actor. There is a something in me, with a risk of sounding cliche, that I just had to do it. I knew from an early age that acting was my path.
I started going to acting school in my senior year in high school, and I remained in acting school through four years of college.
