Today, I want to share a captivating story from my time in this movie industry, specifically when I was cast in Richard Linklater's "Boyhood." Oh, it's a good one!

Picture this: I had left acting professionally, had my late twenties crisis, walked away, and eventually decided to give it another shot but on my own terms.

Now, here's the twist. My second audition was for Richard Linklater's project spanning twelve years – "Boyhood." A lot of that experience was awkward, but it worked like magic.

Fast forward, and I found myself cast as Annie in "Boyhood." The first year on set was mind-blowing. Talk about jumping into the creative deep end!

The whole experience was magical, challenging, and filled with unexpected moments – like singing a song I learned the day before!

This story from my time on "Boyhood" is a load of adventures and insights so tune in to get the whole story.
