I graduated from the University of Oklahoma, and I got the opportunity to take some on-camera classes while I was in school and met a casting director who informed me quite a bit before my move out to L.A.; it made L.A. feel possible, coming from Oklahoma and not having a family that was in the industry.

Some people say they use images to help them remember intricacies. Others say they just remember.

We have no agreed way to talk clearly about such things.
