| Quote | |
|---|---|
| 1 | I was on track to change my name. In college, I was dead set on it. I was going to change it to Sonè or something [laughs]. But my mentor at the time, Seth Panitch, who teaches at UA [the University of Alabama], said, ‘No! Don’t do that. You should keep it. That’s you.’ I said OK and I never thought about it again. |
| 2 | I have stage combat training from college, which is drastically different than fighting for the screen, but I do enjoy that kind of stuff. |
| 3 | Not being secure affects us as humans. It throws us off our balance. It puts us in disarray. |
| 4 | I do tend to be a leader in situations in my own life. |
| 5 | I do have siblings, but I don’t have any brothers. |
