“I majored in art history. But I took theater classes, and every semester I was in college productions.”

“On very base level, I'm a hot mess.”

“People in the U.S. are more reserved, whereas in Naples they'll hit each other and then kiss each other a second after.”

“I get cast a lot as the best friend or the assistant.”

“I have a problem getting all my laundry done, cleaning up and doing all of the normal daily things that a grownup should do.”

“It's fun to play the female lead of anything.”

“It's an amazing role for any actor, so deep and challenging. And Anne Frank was such an amazing person, I feel honored to portray her.”

“I'd rather do comedy. I'd rather make people laugh than cry.”

“'BUMP' deals with all the joys and trauma that comes with a woman's changing body and the struggles of going through labor. It's a beautiful ensemble cast of wonderful people, and I get emotional just being part of the process.”

“I like consignment stores.”

“I used to wear bandanas around my head and beaded necklaces that I had made myself. This was my 'cool' outfit that I was convinced would bring me attention.”

“A lot of times you'll go into a doctor's office and want a kind, non-clinical approach from the physician. Doesn't usually happen.”

“First semester I took classes like econ and that kind of stuff, and I was miserable.”

“I grew up on sets so I've always felt like that I wanted to be a part of the acting world.”

“Acting with a green screen has been physically challenging. I look at the green screen and then I'll look somewhere else and everything looks red. It's a bizarre thing where green has an effect on my vision, but it's fun.”

“I love walking down Clinton Hill's Greene Avenue. It's very neighborhoody.”

“We're not religious, but we've always done Passover and Hanukkah.”

“My mother is Jewish. We celebrated all the Jewish holidays at home.”

“On Gates Avenue, there's an amazing Italian restaurant: Locanda Vini e Olii. It's in an old pharmacy - the front of it still has the pharmacy's name on it - and they have all these little tchotchkes and knickknacks and things behind glass. Whenever my parents come to Brooklyn, I take them there.”

“I've felt very comfortable on stage and love making people laugh. It's that kind of addictive thing where you get a laugh and you just want more.”
