Even as a child, I felt very guilty about eating animals and never knew that there was something to do about it. And as I got older, it became clearer that there are things that I can do and choices I can make.
Publicly I'm a very modest dresser, by Hollywood's standards.
To be honest, it's considered very late to start acting at 11 and a half, for the industry. Most kids are doing it from toddlerhood on.
Well, I mean, I'm still a scientist, you know. I think once a scientist, always a scientist.
I'm super grateful to be an employed actor.

I'm technically a vegan, but I do eat egg if it's in things.
Actors are a lot like professors on dissertation committees - it's a lot of ego, a lot of rallying for position, there is a lot at stake in every single interaction.
