Working with Sofia Vergara and growing up with her was great because she was, you know, a really amazing, curvy role model for me. She helped me learn to accept the way I looked and love it and dress for it and feel good about myself.

With what I've gone through, I think it's really important to become a voice for abuse victims who have no voice. I want to be able to make a difference.

Even though I wish I had a better childhood, I wouldn't trade it, because it made me who I am today. I still respect the people that hurt me.

I started in the industry when I was 4 years old, but I started in the spotlight when I was 11 years old, when I got 'Modern Family.'

I've had the career experience. I've had the experience of taking care of myself. I'm going to college because I genuinely want to learn.

I've seen young actresses have major falls from their career, and that's just not what I want.

People forget that everyone has feelings, regardless of their career choice.

It was really helpful for me when I moved in with my sister, because she's the type of person that is confident in her body. I look up to her so much.

I'm that person who takes a makeup wipe at the end of the night to take all my makeup off. I don't sleep in makeup; I think it's so bad.

I definitely want to continue being an actress. I love it. The reason I'm going to college is because I do want knowledge in another field. College isn't the college experience for me. I'm not going to be in a sorority. I'm not going to network. I'm not even really going to make my lifelong friends.
