I'm fascinated by journalism. I put a keen eye, not a negative eye, on its role, particularly how it is changed by the times we're living in.

Dick Clark is an American icon. I am honored that he has entrusted me with such a role in this national tradition.
My studies are important to me. I made the honor role just recently, with 2 A's and 2 B's.
I entered into Dawson's Creek to do a couple of episodes. They weren't sure about my role in the beginning, but then the chemistry kind of worked.

I just love to work and spend time with my family. And that's the reason I don't look at the length of the role, but what it has to offer me.
