Having a gun in your hand is very empowering.

I've met real female NCIS agents who were smaller than I am. They were very petite.

That's the beauty of the acting world. You can play so many different characters who know and do so many things that you have no idea about as yourself. So I'm a big fan of workshops and classes and learning new things because you can always apply it. It's your little supply bag of creativity. Keep filling it up.

I'm not from the States, so Thanksgiving, for me, was never a huge tradition.

I was born here in the States. I moved to Portugal when I was five. And then my parents put me in an English school.

My main goal, when I started acting, was to show as much versatility as possible because I like playing diverse roles.
