WHERE ARE YOUR RIGHT NOW AND HAVE YOU ALWAYS LIVED THERE?
I'm in Los Angeles and I've lived here for years.

WHERE WERE YOU BORN AND RAISED?
I was born and raised in Las Vegas.

WHAT'S THE BEST THING ABOUT YOUR CITY OR HOMETOWN? 
Its resiliency, the way the people of 702 have responded in the wake of this mass shooting. The community has really come together, to donate blood and offer whatever help was needed, when it was needed most.

WHAT WERE YOUR INFANT ASPIRATIONS? 
I always wanted to be an actor... or a mermaid. The latter wasn't an option.

WHY THESPIAN?
I just found the art and study of it to be rather magical.

WHAT IS YOUR BACKGROUND TRAINING?
When I lived in Vegas, I attended the Las Vegas Academy, an arts high school like "Fame", and that led me study here in L.A. The list is so extensive that it would probably bore you're readers, so I'll spare them. But I use a combination of various techniques I've learned over the years. At the end of it though, it all comes down to giving specific directors what they ask for, so you use the training, but bend what you've learned to accommodate their vision.

HOW DO YOU PREPARE FOR A ROLE AND HOW DID YOU PREPARE FOR "MURDER ON THE CAPE" SPECIFICALLY? 
Usually start by reading the material multiple times, when applicable, you get your hands on and read as much source material, or research you can. Which was the foundation for what I did on "Murder on the Cape". But since the script was written from the point of view of someone who's story wasn't the front running story, you just have to trust the writer/director who adapted that angle of the story to guide you in the direction that, that particular story services.

WHAT IS YOUR PREFERRED CINEMATIC GENRE?
I'm all over the map. My background has largely been drama, but I'm always looking for something that is character driven, regardless of genre & medium.

WHAT OR WHO HAS HAD THE GREATEST INFLUENCE ON YOU?
My mom. Her strength, her grit, her sardonic humor... This apple definitely didn't fall far.

HOW DO YOU GET RED CARPET READY AND HOW DOES YOUR AESTHETIC TRANSLATE IN OTHER AREAS OF YOUR LIFE?
The red carpet is usually my least favorite part of what I do, so I'll reach out to certain designers I have a relationship with, try on a bunch of things and hopefully leave with a dress and self esteem intact. As a woman, unless you're really into that stuff, it's always a bit stressful. My taste is usually old Hollywood, with a touch of rock n' roll. My place reflects that.

HOW DO YOU STAY IN SHAPE?
Calorie restriction, usually with the weekends off of a diet. Working out with a trainer minimum 3 days a week, I'll add some boxing to that & sometimes some tennis on the weekends to not go completely out of control.

WHAT BEAUTY ROUTINE DO YOU SWEAR BY?
Water. I splash my face with water several times a day because I'm so greasy.

HOW DO YOU SPEND A DAY OFF?
Working out, studying, I'm a bit of a news junkie so, catching up on all that stuff... movies, TV, the same stuff most folks do, I guess.

HOW DO YOU UNWIND? 
I'll come home and want to unwind to the news, or if that has the opposite effect, I'll pop on a show I'm into and let that wash away the day.
