"Dr. Mom has so much more energy than I do!" Carrie Schroeder on her character in 'I am Frankie'
Carrie Schroeder is currently well-known for playing Dr. Sigourney Gaines, a brilliant scientist who has created Frankie, a cutting-edge, experimental android who navigates the perils and wonders of being a teenager in 'I Am Frankie,' Nickelodeon’s new serialized live-action show.
‘Dr. Mom’ (as Frankie calls her) is faced with the challenges of integrating another "daughter" into her family after helping her escape from tech company EGG Labs.
Carrie hails from the small Australian country town of Shepparton, near Melbourne, Victoria. When she wasn't riding horses, waterskiing, or camping, Carrie was at piano lessons or recitals. She began dance classes at the age six and it quickly became her passion. Her love of dance continued into high school, where she studied ballet, tap, and jazz, and choreographed many shows and festivals. Carrie always knew that she was going to pursue a career in the arts.
