How did you get involved in acting?
My sister was in high school productions. I used to watch her rehearsals and I thought it looked so fun and amazing - I wanted to do that too.

What was your first acting experience?
As the villain in a high school production of Agatha Christie's The Mousetrap.

What has been your favorite role?
So far? Horst in Bent, Oscar Wilde in Gross Indecency, Valene in The Lonesome West, and Father Flynn in Doubt.

What is your favorite play?
A Streetcar Named Desire - even more so now, because I'm too old for Stanley.

Who is your favorite Shakespeare character?
Macbeth and Iago.

Why does performing Shakespeare interest you?
The language: you have to use all your skills to enable the audience to come on the journey with you. It's so beautiful to say, so imaginative. You're firing on all pistons when you do Shakespeare.

Who are your heroes?
Anyone who does something that benefits more than just themselves.
