A year's unlimited supply of Wonka candy.
What are your hopes for 2007?
Star in a feature film and record an album.
Who are your role models and why?
My dad, Gary Werkheiser. He lives apart from our family so that I can pursue my career in LA, and supports me unconditionally. He's the greatest dad ever.

You've met a lot of cool people through your line at work. Out of all of them, who are your top ones and why?
Mel Gibson. I played his son in a movie 5 years ago and he was the nicest guy on set.
If you could do anything for one day, what would it be?
I'd love to spend a day in space.
What has been the scariest/most embarrassing thing that you've ever had to do on set?
For a Ned's promo, I had to ride a freefall tower ride and speak into the camera the whole time, even as we fell straight down from the top. AHHHHH!!!!
Any embarrassing moments on set?
I was really sick one day and barfed right on set in a fake trashcan in the classroom.
What was your favourite movie/TV show to film and why?
Ned's Declassified, cause the cast was all of my friends and we had a blast, kind of like real school.

Yes, almost all of them. You get really close and form lasting friendships.
Are you home schooled?
Yes, in a college prep long distance learning private school program.
Describe your daily routine.
Its always different, but I do at least 3 hours of school most days. I audition, take acting classes, guitar lessons, record music, make public appearances and play the requisite video game of the day.
If you could change something about your life, what would you change?
I'd have my dad's job be in LA so our whole family could live together.
What has been the toughest thing to do in your life?
Live in a one room studio apartment with my mom when we first came to LA. The bed actually pulled out of the wall.
How does it feel to be a role model of so many people out there?
It's an honor. Just by being nice you can touch so many people in a positive way.
What's the nicest thing a fan has said to you?
A five year old girl sent me a fan letter and wrote “You're my #1 fan!” It was priceless.
