“I love playing loud, indignant, disruptive characters.” — Ego Nwodim Quote

I love playing loud, indignant, disruptive characters.

I have always wanted to live in New York City.

Slice of life and dramedies are the pieces that I most gravitate toward, because I think that's life - life is not all drama, nor is it all comedy. That type of work is really important to me.

I love to play an indignant, disruptive character who just doesn't have time for nonsense. It's fun to me, because I'm not quite like that.

Any good human is constantly evolving, right? We would hope.

Modernity is disruptive, and I endorse that.

Hip-hop, at its best, is disruptive.

I ended up dropping out of high school at 16 and getting kicked out of my home. My parents told me, sadly, that because I was so disruptive to the rest of the household, that I could no longer live under their roof.

Teaching was my first job after leaving university. It was a challenge, but I enjoyed it. Some of the kids were disruptive, but I could deal with it because I was only 24 at the time, and my own school memories were still fresh.

I have fallen in love with people in the lab, and people in the lab have fallen in love with me, and it's very disruptive to the science because it's terribly important that, in a lab, people are on a level playing field.
