• Watchmen was the first time I ever had to cry for an audition and in a show. I was a wreck preparing for it, but the casting director and the director of the episode were really supportive. I felt accomplished afterwards, and completely exhausted the rest of the day.
• My favorite on location shoot ever was when I filmed near a small alpaca farm for Watchmen. I got to pet and feed goats, mini donkeys, chickens, and pigs. Ever since then, I dream of owning a small farm one day.
• I practice Krav Maga, which is a form of self-defense created by the Israeli military. I forgot my gloves and split my knuckles from punching the pads two days before the Watchmen premiere.
• I started out professionally in musical theatre when I was eight years old. I played a Who in How the Grinch Stole Christmas and an angry dwarf in A Snow White Christmas. Those experiences cemented my love for acting and led to what I’m doing now.
• I went scuba diving in the Maldives with my family last winter break and swam with sharks and stingrays. I even spotted a gigantic turtle that I was the size of my kitchen table. I love the ocean, and I’m currently studying marine biology.
• Italy is on the top of my travel wish list. Mainly, so I can eat pasta and gelato at every meal. I also want to visit the olive grove in Tuscany where my parents got engaged.

Watchmen airs Sundays at 9PM ET/PT on HBO.

• I inherited a sweet tooth from my dad, and I can’t resist sugar. When I celebrated my birthday on the set of Just Add Magic, I ate a big slice of chocolate cake, a snow cone, and drank a large root beer float in one sitting. Unsurprisingly, I ran around the stage squawking and flapping my arms like a bird afterwards because of the sugar high.
• I’m biracial; Vietnamese and Jewish. I love visiting my bà ngoại (grandma) because she loves cooking traditional Vietnamese cuisine for me. She shows her love through food.
• I begged my parents for a puppy for eight years, but my mom kept refusing because she is allergic to dander. She finally caved and got me a hypoallergenic fluff-ball we named Mr. Darcy for my birthday a little over a year ago. Persistence triumphs in the end; begging helps too.
• I hope to work with Zendaya and Emma Stone one day. I admire their creative choices as actors. They seem to have a great sense of humor and are grounded and kind.
