On the acting side, tell us about your work on hit shows like Chicken Girls and Save Me?
So Chicken Girls was a lot of fun, I grew up with these kids, we did school together, hung out, I made long term friends.
Save Me was cool because it was the first time I was the main character. It was filmed in the desert area, so it was extremely hot, but such a great experience.
And about the film “Patsy Lee & The Keepers of the 5 Kingdoms?”
Filming Patsy Lee & The Keepers of the 5 Kingdoms was great, it was the first time I really traveled for a role. We filmed in Arizona and drove, we had such an adventure getting there, meeting new people, eating at different places, just a great memory.
