Refuses to see Harper as a "bad person"
"The morality question-how people are so focused on whether or not this Black woman in finance is evil or good-is not the right question. We’re talking about money. There’s no such thing as good or bad money. It’s just money. And then what you do with it, it’s the question we’re asking in [season 3] as well: Is ethical investing even a thing? No, it’s really not. If you’re talking about morality, you can’t also be talking about money. They don’t go together like that. You could try, but that’s a ruse. I agree with Harper in saying that shit’s just not real. Would I behave the way she does? Absolutely not. I just couldn’t do it, because I don’t want to hurt nobody’s feelings.”

On filming her final scene of the finale
"I was like, This is the end of this...And I was ending it in the place that I started with Ken. We have such a close relationship, and I have learned and gleaned and extracted so much out of him. I mean, the man is a legend; he’s one of the best people I know and one of the best people to work with. Doing that scene meant a lot more to me as a human being than I imagined that it would."

Was very excited about the show getting renewed as she's aware of creators Kay and Down wanting to do five seasons.
"I’m always like, We’re going to fucking go again.”

Thoughts on Harper heading into Season 4
-“I think her saying [she’s ready to go back to New York], whether or not it’s true, is just indicative of her confidence now. She’s like, ‘I’ve built the most profitable relationships. I know how to use them to my advantage, and even if I’m in the actual shitter, like all the way in the shitter, I know how to get myself out. So the only thing left to come for, now, is my fear of home.’”

-Hopes for a "Harper-and-Yasmin-girlboss-Powerpuff-Girls season" mostly because she wants to work with Marisa Abela again.

-Excited to play Harper "on a sort of front foot, which we’ve gotten a great taste of in [season 3]. I love playing her on the offense."
