Q&A is not to be duplicated elsewhere and claimed as their own. STAR-KIDZ EXCLUSIVES



1. What do you like most about playing Emma?

My favorite part of playing Emma is that I got to work with Melissa Claire Egan and Cameron Mathison. I also loved that Emma had such wide range of feelings. I am very blessed to have gotten to play such a wonderful character.


2. How do you like working with Stephanie?

I LOVED working with Stephanie! Stephanie is an amazing actress and a great scene partner. She is my good friend and she even came to see me play soccer!


3. What's your favorite part of working with each of the AMC kids?

It was always extra fun day on set when I got to work with the other kids!

Tate (AJ) is a funny guy who always keeps me laughing, we still hanging out together.

Mackenzie (Miranda) has become one of my best friends.

Jake (Spike) is the little brother I have always wanted.

Britton (Ian) was such a cutie.

Ellah (Gabbie) so very sweet.

Dannika(Kathy) always ready to be silly.

Darby Jo (Jenny) always has a smile.

I was so lucky to be one of the Children of All My Children!


4. What was your favorite AMC Wedding to film/be in?

The Rylee wedding where Emma gets kidnapped is my favorite. I got so much great work from that story line.


5. What is your favorite AMC Fan Weekend moment?

My favorite moment was the Karaoke Fan Event. I loved getting to sing with the fans and all my friends from AMC, OLTL, and GH. It was wonderful to get to meet so many of the AMC fans. I continue to stay in touch with many of the fans on Facebook and Twitter.


6. How did you like filming Love's Christmas Journey? and how cool was it is to have so many people from AMC be part of it?

I really enjoyed working on LCJ. I only got to work with Natalie. Natalie is always very sweet. Dannika and I worked on different days. It was so much fun to dress in clothes and work on sets from a different era in time. I even got to meet my new best friend actor Gabriel Suttle who played the Wiseman!


7. Has snow ever been "brought in" on any film or TV set that you have worked on, if so, what was that like?

I have worked with snow, but not real snow. It was Show Snow. That is what they used at All My Children to make it look like it was winter in Pine Valley.


8. What was it like filming CSI: Miami?

I had the best time working at CSI Miami. I got to meet amazing people like Eva La Rue, Emily Proctor and Meredith Hagner. The cast and crew were so good to me too. It was great to get to be a very different character then I have ever gotten to play before.


9. How did you like getting to work with Melissa again?

I was so happy that Missy came back and we got to work together one last time on AMC. It was so wonderful to get to work with Melissa and Cameron all together as a family. I am still very close to Missy and we will always keep in touch.


10. What is your favorite AMC memory?

My very first day and my last day on the set of AMC are my favorite memories. On my first day, I was so excited to be a part of such amazing show. I worked with Melissa Claire Egan, Brittany Allen and Tate Berney. They were all so wonderful to work with and showed me some new TV tricks. The last day was so very sad, but it was so special to be a part of 41 years of TV history. To be a witness to the final scenes and hear that All My Children was a wrap will always be a moment I you will never forget.

Thank you STAR KIDZ, AMC and my fans for everything you have done for me. I really cherish your love and support that you have given me. I am wishing everyone HAPPY HOLIDAYS and the best NEW YEARS!


We'd like to thank Danielle and her family for participating in this year's Holiday Q&A event!
