1. How old were you when you first started acting?

I started auditioning for work when I was 6. My first movie was a student film when I was 8 years old. It was a non-speaking part, a flashback of the adult actor.


2. What was your favorite part of working on Love's Christmas Journey?

I liked it all. I made a new friend, Danielle Parker. I also liked meeting Sean Astin. I liked the western style of the set.


3. How exciting was it working with a cast completely of kids for Bubblegum Smackers?

That's hard to describe. It was exciting because I got to meet new kids and make new friends. It was fun and the director, Lindsay Garvin was very nice and I liked working with her. She is patient and funny.


4. What is the audition process like for your age group?

The audition process is competitive in my age group. You see a lot of the same actors over and over again. I sometimes get nervous when it's a part I really want. I take deep breathes to stay calm and focused and when I get called into the casting room, I make sure to be polite.


5. How do you prepare your lines?

I work on my lines by highlighting my parts and then studying them until I have them memorized. Then my mom and I work on them and make it real. If I don't have the script until I get there, my mom and I practice and practce until I am ready to go into the auditon or until they call me in. If I am not ready when I am called, I ask for more time. When I am in the casting room and in front of everybody I try to bring the character to life by drawing on real emotions in myself and using them for the audition. Sometimes I get coached for parts but I have to know all the lines first before coaching.


6. Who has been your favorite actor(s) to work with to date and why?

My favorite actors I worked with are Sean Astin, all the kids in Bublegum Smackers, Danielle Parker, Griffin Clevland, Riley Rydin, my friends, and Lary The Cable Guy.......


7. What has been one of the funniest things to happen on set/behind the scenes of a project?

To me one of the most funny things that happend behind set was when I ended up having "gas" during a scene with Larry the Cable Guy and my movie dad. We were in a tight space together and it started to stink. Larry, started making jokes about getting gas, etc.....We were all laughing so hard and it took several takes to get the scene done.


8. Who would you love the opportunity to get to work with one day?

The person I want to work with is Corban Bleu because I think he is cool and super talented.....


9. What has been your favorite project to work on?

My favorite project to work on was Tooth Fairy 2 because it was a very nice environment and very fun to work on. The director, Alex Zamm is a very nice guy that is very patient and kind.


10. What advice would you give to other kids your age wanting to get into acting?

The advice I would give is to start doing projects near your hometown. Try to get jobs on student film projects and be willing to travel for work/jobs. It is important to have experience before going out to L.A. or other larger markets. Keep trying if you really like acting and be positive.


Have fun and good luck.
