As my sister got older, I saw how excited she got when she got to do all of that stuff. I was always like, "One day, I'll get to do older parts." I thought that was cool.

When I go home, I play with my baby dolls and strollers and stuffed animals, pretend like they're real dogs.

I like playing characters with as many emotions as possible. I'd love to play a really crazy person - someone truly out of her mind.
