You met in the industry, right?
3:09
Yeah.
3:09
She, her agent brought her to a taping of My Two Dads very early on.
3:16
It was right at the beginning of My Two Dads.
3:18
In fact, it might have been the pilot, because as I always point out, when we met, I was 11, and she was 12.

Tell us about how you got into that career and transitioned from acting.
3:49
I left the business in about 2010.
3:52
I just had sort of had it.
3:53
You know, I had a good run, but [laughs] I was done, and I went to law school to be a prosecutor.

It's the only kind of law I ever wanted to practice, and, and I'm really proud of it.

14:52
I mean, for me, you know, as a, working as a DA definitely helped me come along with that, and I finally got to a point where I c- you know, 'cause you're usually working with a defense attorney who wants something, and oftentimes you cannot agree to it.
15:04
You can't give it to them.
15:05
So that was one of the best things I got was just learning to just be able to say, um, a- and not, not couching it, not, "I'm not comfortable doing that," or not, you know, eh, just saying, "No, I'm not willing to do that."
