All I ever wanted to do was get a great job on a TV show. When I read 'Modern Family' and started looking at what was available - I obviously couldn't play Gloria; I couldn't play Claire. When I saw the character of Cam, I was like, 'I have to have a shot at this,' because I thought it was a character that would be really fun to play.

I'm an actor in that I just want to create roles and characters and play parts that people remember and like or dislike or hate.

I'm a full-contact actor, meaning that I love to act in my toes and in my fingers, and I just try to keep it surprising.
