ADD QUOTES
- Marisa: I grew up in a big Midwestern family of people with real normal jobs. The concept of not only watching movies but thinking you can be in them was very foreign. So, yeah, I did not know a soul when I moved out here. I certainly didn't know anyone in the business.

- (about living in Hollywood) Marisa: Well, every once in a while I'll hit a breaking point, and I'll just leave town. But that just lets me reflect on what I love about this city: the weather, the beach, the creative environment. Yeah, sometimes it's a bit much, but I don't mind it for the most part because I sort of thrive on adrenaline and the excitement and the unknowns and question marks of this business, I think it's fun. And I think you have to think it's fun or it'll kill you.

- (about being difficult to find true love in Hollywood) Marisa: Yeah, I would say so. It's difficult at times to find normalcy, and I think it would be good to date someone who wasn't in the industry at all, though it's hard to meet people like that. If I go out, I go to dinner or parties with my friends. I don't really go to bars.
