There's just something fascinating to me about watching a business interaction unfold, and the negotiation. And how everything is negotiable in life.

I like how I'm able to be curvy and beautiful and represent that in media, because I don't think it's shown often enough.

Every human being needs to feel safe and secure in their life.

I love playing a character that eats on television. It's so fun.
