Q: What do you enjoy the most about working on The Inspectors?

This show has been really special to me because it was my first chance to be the lead of a TV series. I think I can say that's something most actors dream of, so the best part about working on the show is the opportunity to work with some really great people and spread a positive message.

Q: What's the coolest thing about your character, Preston Wainwright?

The coolest thing about Preston is how loyal he is. He was definitely raised right and is always looking out for the little guy, whether it's someone getting scammed or someone who isn't being treated fairly on campus. Preston is a real stand up guy.

Q: What is the most difficult part about playing Preston?

The most difficult part about playing Preston was getting into the mind space of someone who recently lost the use of their legs. The mental aspect, for me, was a little more challenging that the physical limitations.

Q: What is your favorite scene from The Inspectors?

Any scene I get to do with Jessica Lundy. She's such a pro and really brings the best out of my performances when she's in the scene. I've learned a lot from her, as well as my other castmates, and I look forward to working with them all again!

Q: How much do you think your life has changed since starring in The Inspectors?

Well, I get to do cool interviews like this now! I wouldn't say my life has changed too much, but being on the show has definitely made me more confident as well as compassionate for people who can really relate to Preston.

Q: Have there been any scenes that you've been nervous about filming?

Kissing scenes are always a little awkward/nerve wracking, so I'd say the scene when Preston and Veronica finally kiss made me a little nervous. It was such a big build up for our fans too, so I wanted to make sure it was everything they hoped it would be. I think it turned out pretty good!
