Question: Where were you the moment you decided to be an actor?

Answer: The moment I decided to be an actor I was with my college buddies and classmates on a trip in Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The acting bug has lived within me for as long as I can remember, but it wasn't until the end of my sophomore year at Ohio University that I started thinking more for myself, recognizing my true desires, taking life more seriously, and giving breath to my dreams rather than society's "realistic and safe" approach. I spent the remainder of my college years finishing my degree in Exercise Physiology and flirting with grad schools, but most importantly discovering the true meaning to life and happiness. Whilst on the trip in Hilton Head a few weeks before graduation, a revelation overcame me and I knew there was no other life for me but to be the next star actor in Hollywood.

Question: As an actor do you approach a role any differently than you did five years ago?

Answer: Absolutely. Five years ago I was more concerned with the dialogue and my lines specifically. It was more about having the memorization down and the moment minutes and seconds before my scene just to hopefully impress and book auditions. Now, the lines are the last thing I focus on. My approach now surrounds the psychology of the story and character. The little everyday mannerisms, emotions and aspects that shape an individual. I engulf my brain through all waking hours in the emotional aspect and real life experiences that I can relate to with the character, as well as my relationships, interactions and reactions with all the other characters in the script. It's all
