Sofia Carsonis no stranger to the entertainment world.

Not only can she act, but she can sing and dance.

At the age of 3, she started doing ballet and immediately fell in love with dance.

It became my happiness, my haven," she recalled to theLos Angeles Times.

Carson also added that her family has always stood by her side and supported her love of performing.

“My parents from day one, were everything.

Carson’s parents also made sure she grew up listening to music from both cultures.

Instead, she decided to study for a degree in communications and a minor in French, according toPopsugar.

“I moved to LA myself, and I was auditioning while I was in school.

After class, I would run and audition once or twice a day,” she toldTeen Vogue.

All of those auditions resulted in many missed classes.

I’ll make up all my studies.'

But they were always really understanding.”

She had hardly any acting experience before landing the role of Princess Evie.

Carson discussed that first major role during an interview withTeen Vogue.

And I just can’t fathom living in a world without you.

I love you, Cam.

I admire her fire and I admire her strength.

I admire that she always has been and always will be, unapologetically herself,” Carson said.

She shared that while playing April, she was reminded of why she does what she does.

I can never lose that feeling, because that’s the reason why I do what I do."

Carson has worked with the organization since 2017 and has been committed to helping girls all around the globe.

She recalled when she and her sister visited a house in Columbia that fostered teen girls.

The movie follows Cassie Salazar and Luke Morrow as they enter a fake marriage with unanticipated repercussions.

Carson did quite a bit of research to bring her character to life.

“Every memory I could think of,” Carson said.

The actress and the singer-songwriter Justin Tranter teamed up to write some of the soundtrack.

Maybe that’s why she toldThe Wrapthat she was pretty scared when working on the soundtrack.

“I was terrified …

It was like, who thought that I could do this?

Who trusted me to do this?

I’ve never written a soundtrack before!”

She also revealed to the publication that she called her mom crying a few times.

However, she had to pause her education when she became too busy to do both.

As she told hosts Kit Hoover and Scott Evans, “I’m technically still a Bruin.”

Jokingly, she added, “I’m going to graduate maybe when I’m 45.”

Fast forward to 2022, and the actress-songwriter only needs to take nine more courses to obtain her degree.
