I have a large family. There were eight children on my dad’s side and six on my mum’s. There is something about growing up in a huge family, such as mine. There was always someone to hang out with. This was my background, and growing up, I wanted to be an actor. I had a deep desire to be seen, as I often felt I faded away among the cousins and siblings. There was also the allure of pretending to be someone else, and I wanted to be in the theatre.
What did you want to be when you were a child, and how has that changed?
