I never really fit in growing up. I got made fun of a lot of the time in high school. People never liked me, and I was always the new kid.

Growing up in college, in high school, I was the focal point.

I've always enjoyed the teen angst thing. I had a lot of teen angst as I was growing up, so I think I have a lot to say about it through characters before I have to move on.

I like that in 'Caprica' the virtual world is a new thing. The parents didn't have that growing up. And it's the same thing about the Internet and all the current technology. It didn't exist like it does now for our parents' generation. Kids aren't relating to their parents anymore, and I just find that so honest.

Growing up, I was always in my high school musicals and everything, but I kind of stopped doing all that when I finished school and acting became my main priority.

I was a better basketball player growing up in high school than I was a swimmer. Basketball to this day is my favorite sport.
