If I had to type myself, I would say I am a "thinking ingenue," the young lover who has brains and longs for something more. I love the complexity of cerebral characters like this. I really delve into them. I enjoy doing the appropriate historical research. I give the roles I assume a background with desires and flaws. I want to create a real person that people can connect with. I feel that if the audience can't relate to a particular role they will have no interest in that character's story. I love being able to captivate a viewer and make them think and feel something.
