Let's go back to meditation practice.

How important is that and when did that start for you?

Oh my gosh, it's so important to me.

I started meditating summer of 2016, no, the summer of 2015, which is also the summer I got my SAG card, which is cool.

I've never really thought about that connection, but that summer is when I, it was my summer before I graduated college.

And I went to LA just to try it out.

I didn't know I was gonna be an actor.

So I grew up acting in community theater.

And then in high school, I was lucky enough to work professionally in the DC theater scene.

which was amazing and also incredibly overwhelming.

I was doing eight shows a week for months on end for a thousand people a night.

Also in high school full time during my junior and senior year.

So it was a lot.

I mean, it was a dream come true.

I literally performed for Barack Obama.

It was crazy.

It was a very high profile show, multiple shows.

And so anyway, I did feel like I was acting kind of at the, in theater at one of the highest dimensions that you can.

But I really needed a break.

I really needed to know that I was just a human and just a kid and that I could make friends that had nothing to do with acting or the business and that I could, go dancing and get drunk and be stupid.

And so I went to school.

I went to Tulane.

I just had a liberal arts education.

I never even told any of my friends that I was an actor.

Didn't do any theater.
