I definitely am the sort of person that likes to be constantly learning things.

I was on a TV show about dancers for two and a half seasons called &#39;Bunheads&#39; on ABC Family, and that was really fun for me because I&#39;m a dancer in a real life.

I did an episode of a show called &#39;Mind Games,&#39; which is no longer on the air, and it was an intellectual comedy-drama. It was just really smart TV.
