I Feel Like I Have One Foot

A Lot Of The Time, People Want To Hear From Someone Like Myself. They Want To Give It A Shot. It's Challenging, And It's Driven Me More Than Discouraged Me.

Luckily My Parents Were Not Against My Ambition, They've Always Been Very Supportive. But They Were Adamant That I Went To University First.

My Mother Wanted To Be A Teacher When She Was Young, And My Father Didn't Approve Of It, So She Fought Very Hard To Become One. And She Did It. So When I Said I Wanted To Become An Actress, My Mother Was Very Supportive. She Always Said To Me, 'there's No Such Thing As 'can't.

As Soon As I Moved To New York, I Experienced Hurricane Irene And Then Hurricane Sandy Hit Me In Quite A Big Way. I Had 12 Days Without Any Electricity Or Any Water. The Thing That I Realized The Most From It Was That We've Become So Dependent On Technology. There's So Much Accessibility To Information That Suddenly When Everything Is Cut Off, You're Completely Lost, And You Start Asking Deeper And More Profound Questions - How Short Life Is, And How Grateful We Should Be For Things.

I Knew What I Wanted To Do For My Entire Life, From Nursery To University. I've Always Been Geared Towards Wanting To Act. I've Stuck With It, Dedicated Time To It.
