A: Winston-Salem, NC. I was born in Fort Lauderdale (FL) pretty much since I was 7
Q: How does your family feel about your career choice?
A: They’re very supportive. It’s such a roller coaster career, the ups and downs, the highs and lows, that maybe if I had chosen something more stable it would have been better for them, but again, they’re very supportive.
Q: Is this your first role in a feature?
A: No, it’s not. I’ve actually done 17 films; some shorts, some full length features, some indie’s, but I have had a few roles in some features before.
Q: Do you do any work outside of the industry?
A: I do a lot of modeling work, as well.
Q: If you couldn’t be an actor, what would be your dream job?
A: I’ve always loved working with animals. I’ve always thought that I would get involved in that profession in some way if I weren’t an actor, but this is all I’ve ever wanted to do.
Q: Where do you see yourself in ten years?
A: My first thought was producing films. I write, as well, so just always being involved, whether it’s writing or producing or acting. I love film making.
Q: What was your first reaction upon hearing your name announced by Michael Rappaport?
A: I was just stuck in the moment, really transfixed in the moment. I didn’t see the video first. I saw the list first, so I just couldn’t take my eyes off it. I kept staring at it.
Q: What are your expectations for this project?
A: I couldn’t be happier with the cast so I’m kind of taking it step by step. I can’t wait to work with these people. Other than that, I don’t really think I am walking into it with expectations. Just to have an amazing time, work with some great talent.
Q: What has been your favorite part about the LiveMansion: The Movie experience so far?
A: The kindness of strangers. It’s the one thing that I will forever take away from this experience.
Q: If you could work with any director, who would it be?
A: In the moment, I’m liking Ron Howard right now. M. Night. Shyamalan; I’m liking him a lot. I would love to play Vittoria Vetra in “Angels and Demonsâ€, which I am sure Ron Howard will be filming. And M. Night; I love his concepts. I love just how he sees life. It’s very intriguing.
Q: If you could work with any actor, who would it be?
A: The Meryl Streep’s, the Sissy Spacek’s, the Jessica Lang’s, Hillary Swank’s; those women that hit the set with no fear. They don’t hold back, Angela Bassett. They’re just amazing women.
Q: Given the opportunity to play any historical figure, who would you play?
A: It’s funny. The first person that comes to mind is Ghandi. His life was just, wow! It probably sounds crazy. Maybe, that’s one that I will produce.
Q: Is there anything you would like to say to your fellow winners, and future castmates?
A: “Congratulations! I love you all, and I can’t wait to work with you. I can’t wait to be shacked up with you on set.†Meeting them was wonderful. Their personalities are awesome so I can’t wait.
Q: Do you have a message for everyone that voted for you?
A: I am eternally indebted. It’s like my career is no longer my own, and it’s a great feeling.
