Of all the roles you have played in the past, which is your favorite?
Jenna Hope is absolutely my favorite character I’ve played so far. She has such a good heart and sometimes that can cause her to get lost in the shuffle of her own life. I can relate to that on such a deep level. I hope to have the chance to develop her for years to come!
Who is your favorite actor, and why?
It is impossible to pick a single favorite actor but someone I am playing close attention to at the moment is Sam Rockwell. He has such a strong work ethic. He plays all kinds of characters. He as an ability to infuse characters with humor is such a grounded way. He also is very outspoken about his team that he works with. His acting coach, dialect coach and his process. I really admire that.
What's the weirdest thing a fan has ever done for you?
Not exactly weird but what is crazy for me is all the people on YouTube who make fan videos of their favorite shows and characters. I used to be one of those people! So, to see people put time into videos of shows I’ve worked on and characters I have played is very cool.
Tell me about an organization or group outside of work that you've contributed to.
I am a supporter of the Canadian Red Cross. They are a humanitarian society that aids not only within Canada but around the world. Whoever is in need is where your donations are going, and I think that’s how it should be.
What sort of acting roles will you be seeking in the future?
I want to be challenged. Always. I don’t want to repeat myself. I want to push myself further. Any chance to do that I will take whole heartedly!
What is your message to our readers and your fans?
Thank you guys so much for caring what I’m up to and supporting me! It means the world. If you get a chance to check out Impulse on YouTube Premium that would be wonderful. It’s a beautiful story the whole team worked very hard on and the first 3 episodes are free :)
I am constantly hoping to grow and improve in all aspects of my acting. I hope to never reach my capacity for learning about the craft.
