Regardless of any experiences in the past, for me it really is important to be engrossed in as much of the creative process as I possibly can. I was surprised with how much the eight years I spent on 'Castle' actually serviced that. I ended up, in a way, having a free education on that show.

I can't do without face wipes and my Dr. Hauschka Quince day cream.

I love Cillian Murphy's character in 'Peaky Blinders' and Tom Hardy's in 'Taboo' - theses are characters that, as audience members, we follow along with and root for. But our own morality is tested throughout that journey, because these characters ride a thin line between morality and amorality.

Pearl Jam were a part of my growing up.

Every time I go to a new place, more likely than not, I end up seeing an opera there. It's ended up being a part of travel.

There's no one type of film that I like watching. I loved 'Tropic Thunder' and the first 'Austin Powers,' and then 'The Godfather Parts I' and 'II,' 'There Will Be Blood,' Wes Anderson films.

I like anything by 50 Cent and Snoop Dog. I love the way they mouth their way around words.

Working with the earth is peaceful for me.

I carry Marc Jacobs Magic Marc'er eyeliner and Christian Dior red lipstick to amp up my look in a flash.

I'm always the person that is DJing spaces and moments. I'm crazy about music.
