I started acting at seven years old. It took me 20 years to understand that if I was going to make my dreams a reality, I had to take the reigns.

I am flattered that they think that many people would enjoy my work. I don't approach any genre a different way than I may approach another one. I treat every role I do like a role worthy of applying whatever kind of tactic, process and talent I have.
