05 What type of music are you into, and do you play any instruments?
I wish I could play an instrument really well. I kind of just pick up very minimal amounts of stuff here and there. But I guess the type of music I’m into would have to be indi/ alternative folk rock.

06 What do you do when you have some time off? Do you do any sports?
I just do the regular stuff. Hang out, see a film, have a BBQ.. haha, hard question really. I used to train in swimming and I play tennis with friends a fair bit.

07 How was it to film Broken Hill, working with such a experienced team?
It was good fun. It was actually my first project out of Sydney so it was pretty nice to just be in a country town shooting a film. Plus my character is paraplegic in the film so the whole time I was in this crazy electronic wheelchair.

08 If you weren’t an actor, what job would you like to do?
I really dont know. I’d love to be an astronaut. Bit of a stretch from acting but it would be great!

09 Any embarrasing moments whilst filming Home and Away?

Of course. We catch up a fair bit. She turned 18 recently, so we had a good night out and about.

11 Have you ever had any freaky fan experiences?
At this thing over here called the Dolly Teen choice awards… At one stage I could’nt move amongst fans screaming and taking photos… Its very weird… But I guess it is the nature of the beast.

12 What is your first childhood memory?
- not answered

13 What picture do you see when you close your eyes?
The northern beaches in Sydney. They’re the best place on earth.

14 Least useful thing you’ve ever bought?
I bought this stupid magnetic disc thing at these markets in China ages ago. They had it set up so it was spinning and floating through magnetics. I still havent gotten it working to this day. I think I got ripped off.

15 What is the weirdest place you’ve woken up?
Hmm… I guess in my good friends old Van across from Sydney harbour. A few of us slept in the car and had a funny night.
