From Jenn007:
Q:How much input do you get in changing some details in a script? Do you have a recent example of a change? For instance, Zander has always called Emily by her full name in the past but recently we heard him say Em on several occasions. Does the script specify details like that or is it just a fluke when that happens?

A:With Amber, I used to call her Em also –most of the times it is written Em in the script when I say Em. With minor details, I have a pretty good liberty that I can take with the way something is said or wording choices. As far as major line changes, I have to get the ok from upstairs.

Q:What made you, after that play in High School, decide to become an Actor?

A:I had this audience in the palm of my hand - I had never felt anything like that - it was chemical, it was amazing and I was hooked.

A:I think most actors - when it comes down to it - will take any gig they can get. I'd love to do film and that's my goal, but goals don't have to be achieved right away. Film is my end goal. I'd love to do primetime if it was the right kind of show. As far as what kind of show? I don’t know -- one where I'm the star. *laughs*

From Robyn:
Q:What do you consider to be the most important lesson you learned as a child that you still remember and follow to this day?

A:Respect your elders.

From Callie (JumbieGirl):
Q:What is it like to work with Lane Davies and Nancy Lee Grahn?

A:Nancy's great. I've always loved working with Nancy – she's a nut to work with but she’s great. Once the camera turns on, she's a great actress to work with. If you can take her chaos with a grain of salt, you can have fun working with her. Lane is a great guy too and a lot of fun.

From Jim
Q:You and Amber had such a great connection and chemistry. Is that hard to recreate with another actress??

A:In reference to Natalia, it's been great ... it's been easy because I feel like we have a natural chemistry and she's working her butt off and I'm so excited to have Emily back and to have Natalia there. So right now it's a lot of fun. As far as other actresses go, there's a certain bit of chemistry that's just automatic that you find in some people, but if you don't find it our job as an actor is to make the audience believe that it's there.

From N2Zem
Q:Did you have to audition w/ multiple, possible Emily candidates, or did they whittle it down to just one or two?

A:I auditioned with four girls.

From Andrea (dansing)
Q:I was curious to know what's in your CD player right now?

A:Right now I'm in a rock phase. There is The Strokes, Puddle of Mudd, John Mayer (well he's not rock ... LOL), MI2 soundtrack, Metallica: Load, and I don't know what the other one is.

From Lowly
Q:Is it frustrating for you, as an actor, to have to wait 3 weeks or more for fan feedback on your performance and the storyline? When the fan mail with comments on the current show comes pouring in it must seem like ancient history to you because you filmed it so long ago

A:Yes it does seem like ancient history ... it's pretty strange. I'll get calls from friends or get fan mail or go to an event and people go ... I can't believe this happened ... and it was ages ago. So yeah it is pretty strange. I'm just glad I'm working enough that what I taped three weeks ago seems ancient and it's not still that one day I worked three weeks ago that I remember.
