She just wrapped a lead role as homeless teen street musician Teresa in "Black And Blue" starring Canadian artist Christine Evans and blues-man Zach Harmon. Not forgetting her roots, she also marked her return to the theater with starring roles in "8 Shades of Layon Gray" and "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" last Winter in Los Angeles.Hailing from Washington, DC Carolina is also a classically trained musician, playing keys, guitar and singing her heart out.
