Emmy-nominated actress, Broadway star and digital media entrepreneur Christy Carlson Romano has cemented her status as a prominent figure in Millennial pop culture. Best known for her iconic roles in Disney’s Kim Possible, Even Stevens and Cadet Kelly, Romano became the first actor to headline three Disney Channel projects simultaneously, a groundbreaking achievement that solidified her place in entertainment history.

Before her breakout success on television, Romano began her career at just six years old, performing in national tours of Broadway musicals. She made her Broadway debut in the Tony Award-winning production of Parade, originating the role of Mary Phagan. Later, she captivated audiences with an acclaimed run as ‘Belle’ in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast on Broadway, followed by a return to the stage in Avenue Q.

In recent years, Romano has expanded her career into digital media alongside her husband, Marine veteran Brendan Rooney, with the launch of their multimedia production company, PodCo. Together, they have created several top-charting, viral podcasts that are redefining video-forward storytelling.

When she’s not writing her upcoming memoir, hosting for leading networks and Fortune 500 companies, acting or producing viral comedic content for her nearly three million cross-platform followers, Romano enjoys spending quality time with her husband and two daughters in Austin, where they relocated in October 2020.
