Caroline has been a company member with Theater Unspeakable, where she devised new work and toured nationally performing at such venues as The Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, and The Arden. She is a teaching artist and frequent performer at Filament Theatre. Caroline graduated from Columbia College Chicago with a BA in Comedy Writing and Performance.
