• When I'm on set, I do whatever I can to find my focus. One thing that stays pretty consistent for all my jobs is, I listen to a lot of music while I'm working.

A big part of creating a character for me is finding the general palette for what kind of music I'm going to be listening to.

• My friends are much more dangerous than my enemies.
