1. How did you get started acting?

When I was 5 I told my parents that I wanted to be in acting classes. I never wanted to stop them so I got an agent and have been auditioning for about a year and a half.

2. What was your shoot for your Hasbro commercial like?

It was a lot of fun. They loved my moves on the bed so I was given the comedic part of the commercial. There was supposed to be more stuff but we ran out of time since we filmed last that day. 🙂

3. How did you react seeing it air on TV for the first time?

I was super excited! It took about 6 months to air so I wasn’t sure if/when it might finally air.

4. What has it been like seeing your photo used on Hasbro displays in stores?

It’s been the best! Friends from all over the US have spotted my picture. I got lucky they have used my picture so much.

5. What was your time on set like filming for your Spinmaster commercial?

This one was fun too. We really had a good time. Jordan Barker the director was super nice and fun to work with. Plus it’s always fun filming with new and old friends.

6. Do you have a favorite part of auditioning?

Well you never know what to expect in an audition. My favorite auditions are the ones where I am allowed to dance. Those are the most fun!

7. What was the experience like filming your Barbie demo video?

That director was super nice too. Olivier at Mattel is one of my favs. I liked doing that one because I was doing it on my own so it was all on me. The crew was super cute. We all danced on set the whole time. Plus I absolutely LOVE Barbie!!

8. Have you gone to the GH studio with TK? If so, what was it like?

I went when he auditioned but that was in the offices above. I did go one other time when he had a fitting and from what I saw it was kind of like a real hospital only the rooms were used for different things. It was cool to see.

9. Who have been some of your favorite people to work with?

I have my favorite directors and friends to work with but I usually make friends pretty easily on sets. I really like the people at Mattel and Spin Master. They are all super nice and positive.

10. What has been your favorite project to work on so far?

This is a tough question. I’m going to say the Spin Master Brightlings because I was selling this doll since the Sizzle Reel so I really hoped it did well. Also Hasbro using my face so often with different games and on their websites has been super flattering so that is a close second.

Is there anything else you would like to add?

Thanks for asking! Look for me in an upcoming Spin Master Chubby Puppies commercial and some more little commercials/projects soon!!
