Her television credits include leads in the ABC television movies Our Guys and Trapped in a Purple Haze. Sam in the WB hit show Popular was her first role as a series regular.

"She's trying too hard," continued Pope. "Her actions don't match up to her convictions, and that's what she still has to learn."
