I always admire people who do commercials because they have to put together a beginning, a middle, and an end in 30 seconds.

I think I have between twenty and thirty commercials playing at present.

I was always amazed about how much I could finally squeeze into a thirty second commercial.

For the longest time, I was auditioning, getting called back, and I had a long string of things not going my way. I thought, 'Maybe this is never going happen. Maybe I'll never book a commercial.'

I honestly don't even know how I got into acting. It happened so quickly because my mom and sister used to do commercials, and apparently when I was little I would unbuckle myself from the stroller and crash their auditions.

I went to a few really bad commercial auditions because I needed the money, and when you booked a commercial, your life was made: you could eat.

If you're going to act and do this for a living, you want to play something that the audience didn't expect.

Film acting is really the trick of doing moments. You rarely do a take that lasts more than 20 seconds. You really earn your spurs acting onstage. I needed to do that for myself. I would hate to say at the end of everything that I never did a stage play.

For a long time I did not want to do television because I did not want to get stuck playing the same person. I wanted the ongoing challenge of a variety of roles.
