“People called me 'Slim' and 'Daddy Long Legs.' My best friend Martine named me Daddy Long Legs after she saw me running track. She was making fun of me!”

“I was a good student, but I was the biggest procrastinator.”

“People ask me, 'How's 'Teen Wolf?' and I tell them it's literally the best job I've ever had. It's hard. Everybody wants to be a series regular. It's something that a lot of actors would kill to have. That being said, it's very demanding of you, in so many different ways.”

“I was the fastest typist in my school, and I had an obsession with spelling and memorizing.”

“I'm personally more of a low-maintenance type of person. I want things to be easy and quick, especially when it comes to getting dressed.”

“I was the happiest in English class, and algebra was where I cried.”

“My brothers were my idols. I've always looked up to them and was proud to be their baby sister. I felt like they gave me some cool points, too.”

“I had no idea what I wanted to be when I was 17. I just knew I wanted to be something larger than myself.”

“I grew up in Louisiana - a little suburb right outside of New Orleans - and I wouldn't have it any other way!”

“I replaced someone on 'Days of our Lives' once, and the fans hated me. She was a redhead, I was a brunette: they went nuts. Even at fan events, they were rude to me.”

“Personally, in real life, I'm a little more down-and-dirty than I am glamorous.”

“I'm actually loving the soundtrack to 'The Secret Circle' that our music supervisor Liza Richardson puts together, like Washed Out and Cults, but my favorite band is Bootstraps.”

“My favorite song is Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You' because my brother used to sing it to me as loud as he could. Annoying then, favorite memory now.”

“My favorite movie is 'Closer' and 'Love Story.'”

“I love to eat. I'm from New Orleans. I eat like nobody's business. So to find a workout that I actually look forward to is a lifesaver.”

“I worked at a local country club that I never belonged to. I did random tasks in the pro shop and supposed to be in charge of the register, but that didn't go so well. They quickly realized I was better with people, not computers.”
