On being on Rockville
“I had just left my job in January 2015 and, a few months later, the Fergusons called again. I was so excited to be part of the show and yet so nervous. I was star ring with all these greatly talented actors and I was a newbie. But they all made me feel comfortable and I learnt so much. It will remain one of the most rewarding moments of my life,”
