I'm portraying out characters, I'm portraying femme characters, characters that are really outside of the box. I never thought I would get that opportunity to portray those characters at all, much less have a career that I have.

When I moved to L.A., I had no intention of really pursuing acting. I wanted to focus on stand-up. It's crazy to me that my acting career took off much faster than my stand-up career.

I didn't want to do Chekhov or Shakespeare. So I switched my major from acting to costume design. Eventually, I got a job working as a wardrobe assistant for a theater company. I would dress the actors, fix their costumes, do the quick changes for them and all that stuff.

I had a rough start when I moved to L.A. I couldn't find a job, so I couch-surfed for the first two years.

Reviewers said Ghost Country was rich, astonishing and affecting in the way it blended comedy, magic, and a gritty urban realism in a breathtaking ride along Chicago's mean streets.

Trek' is probably more cerebral and philosophical. 'Stargate' does seat-of-the-pants adventure and humor better.

To like and dislike the same things, this is what makes a solid friendship.

I know a lot of cowboys and I've done a little work on ranches with cattle, and those people become your friends, and keep their word.
