I was doing my first ever commercial for a (what used to be top of the line) Sony camera, and I remember they just told me to be me and have fun, and I was like hey… I could do this for the rest of my life!!
Do you have any interest in zodiac signs and understanding them? Explain. (Whether it is yes or no) – This is the Zodiac issue…
No, unfortunately I’m not too educated on them!
Tell us about any upcoming projects. How has acting played a part in gaining a better understanding of yourself and others?
Honestly, I think playing Jeremiah al- lowed me to pull a lot from my past and I was able to work through past experienc- es during scenes! Jeremiah and I are very similar in a lot of ways and I’m blessed to have played a character that helped me understand myself and learn even more.

What do you hope to accomplish in the near future?
Honestly, I’m really looking forward to season 2 and who knows after that. But I do thoroughly enjoy a good romance movie, just like silver lining playbook, before I fall, or spectacular now. So who knows, maybe in the future I’ll be explor- ing more of that route!!!
