“On ‘NCIS: LA’ I play a teenage computer hacker,” she said. “I had a great time working on the show. LL Cool J, or Todd, is so much fun to work with.

Oda also appeared in an episode of the CBS sitcom “The Big Bang Theory” that aired on Sept. 26. “I had a small scene with Kunal Nayyar, who plays Raj,” she said. “Kunal is crazy funny and very real in real life. The actors and crew were extremely nice and made the time I spent there comfortable and exciting.”

She added, “I’m focusing on TV and film and a transition from Disney into more mature material. I’m growing up, and I want my body of work to reflect that. Figuring out my place as an Asian American actor, singer, and 22-year-old person in entertainment is and will continue to be a challenge that excites me.”
