I'm An Actor. That's What I'm Gifted

Some Directors Cast You Because They Trust You To Do The Performance - But Then They Forget To Direct You.

I've Been Acting Since I Was A Child, And Though This Was Different In A Way, I Think I've Been Very Blessed. The Majority Of The Sets I've Been On Have Been Very Inclusive And Very Empowering, And I've Often Chosen To Work With People That Sing From The Same Song Sheet.

I Had Literally The Time Of My Life, And Thought, "wow. Television Doesn't Seem To Be As Crazy As It Was When I Was A Kid." The Dream For Me Was Always To Be In The Movies, You Know. But When This Came Along, I Read The First Script And I Thought, "oh, My Gosh. This Is Incredible."

I Can't Act Without Music Very Well.

When You've Been Raised In Care, Rap Music Isn't Just About Guns And Sexism. They're Talking About Real Things You Can Hang On To, Problems Of Identity That You Have Sympathy With. It's Not Just About The Music, With Rap: When I Was In Care, It Meant A Whole Lot More Than That.
