1. How did you feel when you booked a part in the Barbie video?

That was amazing! It was a long casting process and was praying it would work out and we found out on my Mommy’s birthday that I booked it! She said it was a perfect present!! Then I found out I would be playing a real life vet and was so excited to be working with animals- a dream job and loved how it came out with such a great message!

 

2. What was your product packaging shoot like for them for the Barbie dream house?

I love everyone at Mattel and have been so blessed to work with them for so many years but the dream house was the most exciting! It was so fun to see the dream house before everyone else and it is amazing! My grandma loved seeing me on the box and bought us the dream house!

 

3. How did you enjoy shooting for Tommy Hilfiger?

That was so much fun because we shot at a college football stadium and there was the cutest bulldog who we worked with! Plus, all of the clothes were so cool and loved working with all the kids- we had the best day!

 

4. What is your favorite part about working on GH?

EVERYTHING- I love it there so much and especially seeing and working with Jason has been a gift I will treasure forever:)

 

5. What is it like working with Dylan and Brayden?

They are so cute- a little shy at first but then I can get them to laugh and giggle which is so fun!

 

6. How do you like working with Kelly Monaco?

She is amazing- so sweet and funny and beautiful. I love just hanging out with her on set and we always have fun laughing especially during blocking! I have loved working with her so much and so grateful for our time together:)

 

7. What is it like working with Jane Elliot?

I love her, she is always so sweet to me at the studio and it was so fun to work together again since it had been a while. We had fun working out the kidnapping scene and glad she was the one to rescue me!

 

8. Is there anyone you wish you had more scenes with on GH?

That dream came true when I got to work with Kimberly again this past month- it meant so much to me to share these special scenes with her & Jason. Memories that I will treasure forever- I love them so much:)

 

9. How do you memorize your lines?

First, I read everything to get a feel for the things that are going on before to get an idea of how I would react and why. Then I go over the lines to get them down so it becomes just natural to me and then we work out the camera angles and other things on set:)

 

10. What is your favorite scene to film this year?

I would have to say my favorite scene to film this year for GH was the park scenes I had with Jason after the kidnapping attempt. It was so special to me because Jason and I talked about the scenes before and gave me some tips because things on set go so fast. I felt really good about them and right after he gave me the biggest hug and I could tell he was proud of me. Then some of the crew and producers in the booth came down & gave me a big hug too!

 

Anything else you’d like to add?

I am so grateful for an amazing 2015- so many fun adventures from working on GH, flying to Hawaii for Westin, shooting for several print campaigns, being a part of the huge Barbie campaign, and booking Criminal Minds-beyond borders! Thank you to my family & friends for all of the support over the years and believing in me- it means the world to me. I am truly grateful and feeling very blessed and excited to see what 2016 brings! Xoxo

 

We’d like to thank Brooklyn for participating in this year’s Holiday Q&A Event!
