About

Hi!

I'm Caroline.

I’m a New York City-based Sorta Rican actor, singer, dancer, cat lover, TV binger, amateur impressionist, cocktail enthusiast, etc.

I grew up in St. Louis, Missouri (GO CARDS!) and graduated from Indiana University with a BFA in Musical Theatre (GO HOOSIERS!) While I'm a true Midwestern girl at heart, recent travels include Middle of the Ocean, Central Perk, and Pemberley House (check out my resume.)

Thanks so much for stopping by. Don't be shy! Contact me for the VIP top-secret stuff.

Mucho amor. <3

This song has always struck a chord with me and it was truly a privilege performing it at @donttellmamanewyorkcity for my new york city debut. In case you didn’t know, september is national suicide prevention month. According to the @trevorproject, 39% of LGBTQ+ young people seriously considered an attempt in the past year, including 46% of trans and nonbinary people.

Please remember to protect, advocate for, and uplift our trans and nb siblings, in this country and around the world. Hatred will ALWAYS lose. You are SO loved!! 🩵🩷🤍

took this sneaky video from rehearsal the other day and just had to share about these humans I’m blessed to work with. I get to watch this number every night and I can’t emphasize enough the gift it is to feel inspired every single time. ✨SPECTRA CAST 13 DANCERS ARE MAGIC✨

LIFE UPDATE: I’m going back to sea!! 🛳️💃🏻🌊

For the next 9 months, I’ll be performing as a featured vocalist on board Royal Caribbean’s Anthem of the Seas! I get to work with this INSANELY talented cast in our show called Spectra’s Cabaret, while traveling through Spain, France, Portugal, Norway, Italy, the UK, and the Caribbean.

Feeling truly blessed to do what I love while seeing beautiful new parts of the world for the first time. Grateful doesn’t even cover it 🥹

With that said, all the cool girls are using whatsapp and you should too 🤪 (pls keep in touch while I’m in the middle of the ocean 🥲)

Much love. ❤️

quick lil pop ditty from my long time fav @ddlovato, plus some reflection…

Being an artist takes truckloads and truckloads of resilience. I have been very blessed with some truly wonderful experiences in the short time I’ve been out of school: my first professional contract, working on a cruise ship, plus some auditions and callbacks that a year ago I would be in amazed disbelief about.

At the same time, I have already become very familiar with the all-too-true phrase, “Auditioning is the job.” What we do is literally crazy. It’s a constant balancing act between the pure hope and joy and excitement of possibilities and the disappointment of those possibilities being ~just~ out of reach. The knowledge of how hard and long you have worked just for a chance at something, only to not get it. Add onto that the realization that EVERY job has its negative parts, even the ones you’ve dreamed about, and you get a lifetime of lessons within just a few months.

All of these feelings are valid (and universal) and all of these experiences are worthwhile in terms of our development as artists and, more importantly, human beings. The more intentionally we can practice GRATITUDE for all of it - the ups and the downs - the more authentically we can express ourselves through this crazy silly beautiful thing we do. It is the HARDEST and most REWARDING thing in the world.

Ok I’m done. If you read this far, go get yourself a cookie!!! 🍪 Much love to you all. 🤍

Also I don’t own this music ok! Don’t come for me insta!
