I'm so grateful and honored to play in this role with such a dedicated cast. We've worked tirelessly on this material which is extremely difficult in nature. I am thankful for the technique the Stella Adler Studio has given me over these past three years in training, that has helped protect my mental health while creating traumatic memories for my character. In using my imagination to create her past, I am using less content from my own life to relate to her. Her circumstances are so much bigger than me, and it has been a challenge rising to her heights and bringing her body down into me.
