1
A powerful mindset is what separates people. When I came to Los Angeles, I was so sold out for acting that if I were to lose everything and end up living in my car, I would still keep acting and get my way out. That is my commitment every day.
2
Everything I do revolves around me being Irish. I can't escape that. No matter what country I go to or live in, it is always there. Going back to Ireland and seeing family and friends always reinforces that.

Acting is like baseball in many ways. While many in Hollywood are focusing on the next 'big home run', I just try getting on base. Then I am happy!

"Never give-up".
