1. How did you get started in the industry?

I got started in the industry when everyone kept telling my mom how cute I was, so my mom set up a photo shoot and sent out my pictures to all these agents. She didn’t think she would get a response and she heard back from every one.

 

2. What was your first booking?

My first booking was a video for FEMA/WIC. There were a lot of kids at the audition but they picked me!

 

3. What was the experience like shooting for Toddlewood?

Toddlewood is so amazing! Working with them I was able to host E! news with Terrence J and Giuliana. It was so much fun, one of my favorite jobs ever!!!

 

4. How did you enjoy being on the Today Show?

The Today show was fun. There were other kids there for me to laugh and play with and I met all the hosts. I was even able to keep the stuff I modeled for the show.

 

5. What was it like shooting for J.Crew?

J.Crew was fun getting to wear all the cool clothes. We ate and played the whole shoot.

 

6. What was the best part of working for Reading Rainbow?

Reading Rainbow was so much fun. There were so many people there and I was paid to play on an Ipad all day. I was interviewed by all these news reporters, I felt like a celebrity!

 

7. Do you have a favorite aspect to doing voice over work?

Voice over work is cool because you get to go in a studio with all these microphones and equipment. It was weird doing something with no cameras around but I liked hearing my voice.

 

8. What was the experience like filming The Blacklist?

I loved working on the Blacklist! It felt like I was getting paid to just have fun. It was freezing cold outside that day, but it was so awesome zooming all over the city shooting different scenes.

 

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

My favorite people to work with have been Terrence J and Ray Rice. I love football so working with an NFL player was amazing!

 

10. Do you have a favorite project you’ve worked on so far?

I’ve enjoyed every job, they have all been so much fun. Hosting E! News, the Blacklist, and my Audi commercial are definitely my favorites!

 

Is there anything else you would like to add?

I had so many amazing opportunities last year. I hope 2014 is ten times better!!! I really want to work on a major feature film this year.
