QUOTES:

My role is “Katara” in The Last Airbender (2010), I’m a water bender from the southern water tribe, and my character is really strong but also loving.

I have six brothers and one sister. I grew up playing ice hockey, a total tomboy, and that’s what I thought I was going to do – be an ice-hockey player.

When I was 12, I got a manager, but my mom was against it. It took a lot of convincing. But when I got a job at Manhattan Theatre Club, I think she saw how passionate I was about it and that I worked really hard – and now she’s super supportive.

You see people, you judge. It’s just the human thing to do – good or bad, it’s a fact. Like when you get a coffee at Starbucks and the person is rude to you. My mom always says, ‘Yeah, but you don’t know what kind of day they’re having.’ You don’t know the back-story, and that’s why it’s so fun to be an actor and to get into the back-story.
