“I tend to be the type of personality that puts a lot of pressure on myself.  So instead of it creating freedom inside of myself, then I always feel like I have, sort of a responsibility to do my best. I would love to say like all the accolades gives me more confidence, but in some way it creates a pressure that I put on myself to try something new or do something different and as I’m maturing I’m kind of letting go of that a little bit and enjoying what I get to do without that sort of internal pressure. But I wouldn’t be where I am today without the nominations. I have to say I think that it made a huge difference in my career because I kind of got a late start. So it brought attention to roles that, that maybe people wouldn’t have paid attention to previously.”
