ABOUT ME!
Hey, thanks for visiting my website! I am a New York-based performer. I was raised in a small town outside Rochester NY where I found my love of performing at 10 years old playing the iconic Scat Cat in Aristocrats Jr. The rest is history!
Growing up, I performed at every theater I had access to. I started out at the historic GateSinger Company (The oldest community theatre venue in the country!), then I worked my way up to professional theaters including JCC Centerstage, Blackfriars Theatre, and RBTL.
After High School I went to SUNY Fredonia where I earned my BFA in Musical Theatre. There I did it all! I directed, performed, choreographed, etc!
I graduated in 2022 and now I live in NYC!

"...there were three songs performed live, one each from A Bronx Tale, Miss Saigon, and Waitress (Williamson High School senior Avery Carlson, who performed the soaring "What Baking Can Do" from Waitress was the evening's brightest star.)" - Rochester CITY Newspaper
"Avery Carlson as teenage daughter Carolyn Johnson. Carlson's voice is easily the sweetest in the show, and she commands the stage with her acting as well." - Rochester CITY Newspaper
