Jackson went on to say that she only has fond memories of her time as a child actress (which began in 2006 with an appearance on Sesame Street).

“For me, I had a great experience,” she told the outlet. “I got to learn a lot being in the industry at a young age, being able to have opportunities I feel like probably the average kid wouldn’t be able to. My mom, she’s always kept me humble. All my friends always keep me humble and that’s really important. I feel like when you have that great support system, you cannot go wrong.”
