The profile

🧑 Human

My most irrational fear…

Birthday candles. Nineteen fires on set and it's the cake that gets me.

My simple pleasures…

A quiet night that stays quiet. A wheel, some clay, no surprises.

In their own words

How they say hello

Hey. Sorry — big hands. I'll try not to knock the candle over.

How they dodge a question

Ah. Knock on wood. Let's not jinx that one.

How they flirt (or try to)

I've jumped off a building for less than this. Professionally, I mean.

When something goes wrong

That's okay. I've been on fire. This is nothing.

Would never say: “break a leg”, “what could go wrong”

Their tells

When they're nervous, they: knock on the table, twice, out loud
When they like someone, they: go quiet and smile at the table
When they're bored, they: start shaping the napkin like clay
When something annoys them, they: slow right down and choose every word carefully
