Before there was American Horror Story, there was Popular, the first show Caroline cast with producer Ryan Murphy. Following this experience, Caroline worked with a myriad of prominent producers and directors, including Lauren Shuler Donner (X-Men franchise), David S. Goyer (Blade trilogy), John Ridley (12 Years A Slave) and Jon Turteltaub (Disney’s The Kid). Collaborating with Walt Disney’s casting department, Caroline worked on Gone in Sixty Seconds, Pearl Harbor, and Gangs of New York. Earlier in her career, Caroline cast the multiple award-winning late-night show Jimmy Kimmel Live! Later, she added video games including Assassin’s Creed III and Far Cry to her varied and eclectic work. Additional credits include X-Men 2, Blade Trinity and Rust Creek. Having a diverse and rich background as a musician, singer, actor and casting director has provided a firm foundation and distinct network of professionals in both film and television. Caroline served as Vice President of Casting Society, as well as Vice President of Advocacy, leaning in to shine a light and elevate global voices on both sides of the camera. She is currently producing a film - a love letter to RomComs, and producing a podcast which takes a look at who we are as creatives and what we are becoming on this side of the pandemic and writer and actor strikes. Her immigration film, Bienvenidos a Los Angeles, is the Diversity In Cannes Short Film Showcase winner and is currently on the 96th Academy Awards short-list for best live action short-film.
