Carol Lee
Carol first fell in love with acting in the 4th grade when she got the lead role in her class play, which started her on the path to becoming...a sorta working artist? She is the ditziest smart person you will ever meet and is as comfortable as the vapid valley girl as she is as the nerdy Asian girl...but has the most fun being the bitchy girl.
Outside of Model Majority, Carol can be seen as Luanne in Banana Zakary (Point Lookout Film Festival Best Concept, Grove Film Festival Best Film), co-starring as Karen Chang on the web-series Bougie Betty, as Penny on another web-series, Math Warriors, or looking annoyed and shocked in the background of random TV shows. She at times freelances as a video editor, director, and producer. Carol also bakes pastries, buys too much makeup, and is a nail polish addict.

Marcus Cardona
Sarcastic, satirical, smart, social media savant, and shameless. These "S" alliterations comprise of Marcus' comedic style. The by-product of middle class rural Maine upbringings, Filipino immigrant parenting, TV addiction, post college debt depression, under protest private school attendance, and an all too self aware Peter Pan syndrome. Marcus' youthful storytelling abilities and coming to grips with "adulting", social interactions, politics, stereotypes, pop culture, life, and relationships in the social media age is an original post-postmodern comedic commentary you don't want to miss out on.
