“I love to write. I'm not necessarily a joke writer, but I think I can find a lot of comedy in humanity, in a person, and so I just try to, as I'm writing, inhabit who that person I just saw was and be like, 'OK, what's their point of view?' That's where my comedy comes from.”

“I'm more of a cynic, but my husband loves 'Rent.' For Valentine's Day, I got him a 'Rent' walking tour. All it was was a man pulling up photos from the movie on his phone and going, like, 'In the movie, they go to Life Cafe.' And then he took us to a thrift store and it was, like, 'Angel wore a coat you could probably find in a thrift store.'”

“There's something so nuanced and specific that the wardrobe department at 'SNL' knows how to do. It's like they've mastered every type of woman, every type of man.”

“I've never been a fan of phone cases - I just get the most simple acrylic one - but Memor makes these really cool crafted ones that are embellished with little shells and old gold buttons and charms. They're really stunning and beautiful.”

“I really like a good scone.”

“I was in the orchestra pit for 'Pippin' my freshman year. I played flute. But I only did it because I had a crush on a guy.”
