My dad works in insurance; my mom is a speech pathologist. Very Midwestern, adorable childhood.
I stopped modeling so I could go to drama school at the William Esper Studio. It's Meisner.
I listen to a lot of Solange. I love old-school as well.
I do a lot of yoga, and that definitely helps. And Pilates is so good for your legs.
I've been obsessed with Opening Ceremony since I moved to New York. I've spent whole paychecks there.
I come from a family of strong women, who have been positive role models for me.
I'm learning every day.
I just hope I can still take the subway, honestly.
I really connect to strong feminist writers that make their ideas accessible for the rest of the world.
I thought I'd be doing weird, Off Broadway theater after I graduated.
We all know what it's like to go through growing pains and have awkward moments talking to someone you have a crush on.
People are like, 'Was it hard growing up mixed?' 'Did you not fit in?' and I'm like, 'No? What? That's the dumbest question ever.'
I think, living in the city, it's so easy to forget that you're attached to the earth.
I never thought I would actually become a professional actor. I just kept going with it. One thing led to another.
It's natural to get nervous about anything you care about.
Growing up, there were no families on TV that looked like mine.
