What message would you give to young aspiring actors?
Be passionate about your art, work hard. Watch, truly perceive and absorb. Watch actors, movies, theatre productions, children, oddballs, and everything else. An aspiring will always find something to learn from. Be honest with your work and most importantly, with yourself. And try and do some theatre work!

My parents.

What would you do with a million dollars?
Charity, travel, investment, and a Master's degree from a brilliant school on a subject I love (theatre and filmmaking)!
