Looking back, she said, “My ethnicity was my strength in this movie. That's what was required of her (my character). I think that constantly standing up for yourself and seeking work that may be harder to attain, but you kind of keep pushing and doing the auditions, meeting the right people, and trying to get the job, that kind of cracks open the door. So since I met you then to now, I think I have just been doing that. And eventually finding allies.”
