She’s best known for her standout performances, especially her recurring role in the Netflix original series Hemlock Grove, which really put her on the map. Fans also remember her well for her regular role as Beth Pilly in Kid’s Town—a part that showcased her charm and talent early on. Around that time, she continued building momentum, starring as Lauren in the 2013 TV movie Bunks. Then, in 2014, she took on the role of Taylor Dean in the Disney Channel Original Movie Zapped, further solidifying her presence in family-friendly entertainment.
Before all the spotlight, though, she was just a passionate kid with big dreams. She discovered her love for acting and dancing at a young age, nurturing those interests throughout her childhood. Growing up, she had the unique advantage of being fluent in not just English, but also Spanish and French—skills that allow her to shift between cultural contexts with ease, almost like switching “culture modes” effortlessly.
Born in London, Ontario, Canada, she comes from a rich background—her parents are Margarita De Antuñano and Barry McCarthy. It’s clear that her journey, shaped by both talent and diverse influences, has helped her become the dynamic performer she is today.
She first appeared on screen playing the role of Laura in the heartwarming television film Booky and the Secret Santa, where she truly made a memorable debut. Two years later, she returned to the character, once again stepping into the shoes of Laura in the sequel, Booky’s Crush, bringing the same charm and authenticity that fans had come to love. Her portrayal remained a standout, showing growth while staying true to the spirit of the original story.
