I did game shows, I did interview shows, I did talk shows, I did commercials, I did acting. But all of that was a million years ago.
I grew up in Maine working at a video store and found myself being pulled more and more to on-camera stuff.
I think most actors jump at the chance to do something where the camera's on them all the time.
I have a lot of fun playing a model on television, and I love being an actress. I don't think I could ever handle that world.
Nobody can understand the pressures of doing an hour-long TV show unless you've done one. Even when you're not on call, you still are working, learning lines, doing appearances, just tense.
I didn't really like modeling; it was fun but I always wanted acting.
It's my life - acting.
Really, voice-over is great. If it paid as much as on camera work, it's all I'd ever do.
I began modeling in N.Y. and doing commercials. That led to regional theatre and then Broadway and then movies.
Before 'Grey's Anatomy,' I was doing musicals, plays, commercials, you name it.
My great joy in working on anything is stepping out in front of the camera and working with the actors.
I'm always happy and most at home on the stage. I love film and television, but I love live performance... your immediacy with the audience, it makes all the difference in the world.
You learn a lot about acting and being physical and being on stage, but there is technical stuff on camera that you can't learn until you do it.
I was at an acting academy for seven years prior to the trial.
Usually for cartoons, I record them in the mornings from 9 A.M. to noon, then I have the rest of the day to do on camera. It actually gives me time to work on my own projects.
I really love being onstage - that's kind of home base - but I love the camera, too. I love it all.
I don't miss working on camera as much as theatre. But I do love film and television because it's so immediate; you walk on to a set and the tables are dusty, and everything's as it should be.
Acting is something I'm interested in, and I'll keep going to auditions, but modelling is my main job.
The world that I would want to get into would be acting. In the beginning, I would do stuff as myself if I had the opportunity to host events - host, like, a talk show. Something like that, I think, would be super amazing.
A couple jobs that I would love to do are hosting a television show, sideline reporting for the NBA or NFL, on-camera hosting for an entertainment network, event planning for a PR company or resort and, of course, WWE Diva!
I always wanted voice over to be part of my career. Even as a child, I'd watch cartoons and know that someone was doing the voices. When I moved to L.A., my hope was that I'd do on-camera work and voice over. I've ended up doing both, but the voice over side took off in a way that I didn't expect!!
I'd come up with one leg in theater, but never my first leg. I loved the camera too much.
I'll never stop acting, but music is another passion of mine. I just love creating projects in the entertainment field and performing onstage or in front of a camera.
I want to continue working with actors who truly enjoy the process of acting.
Actually, acting and hosting shows just happened on the way, and I will do it 'til it lasts and then concentrate on writing.
