When most people think of professional actors, they tend to think of romantic leading types.
But I wouldnt trade being a character actor for anything.
But it was almost the opposite for me.

Thats a blessing and a curse, of course.
The curse is that those years can be really discouraging.
A lot of actors give up or find someone or something that takes them in another direction.
Those kinds of actors are my role models.
Most people dont know their names and might not even realize where theyve seen them before.
Sometimes they get to step into a lead role, and I love that thats happening more and more.
