My favorite thing about being an actor is that I get to be so many different people in one lifetime. You sort of get to be all of these different characters.

I've always been a very outdoors sort of girl. I'm more a tomboy than a girly girl.

I'm scared of karaoke. I think if I did have a go to karaoke song, it would be 'Whatta Man' by Salt-n-Pepa.

I love watching a good, freaky horror movie. I love it. It's one of my favorite things to do, to go and see at the cinema. Just to tune out and be freaked out.

I've learned that social media and our private lives, you know, our private lives are not so private anymore, so it takes a little bit of getting used to.

I have a lot of hostility.
