Carly Aquilino Wiki/Career
Carly Aquilino was born on November 18, 1990, in Long Island, New York, where she was raised by her parents. Her passion for comedy began as a child and she began writing comedies in high school.
After high school, Carly began working as a hairdresser. She told LaughSpin during an interview in 2013 that she was working with runway models, which required her to work late into the night until about 2 am.

During this time, Carly dyed her hair red. It had nothing to do with attracting people’s attention as she explained to her campus. Carly never thought her light hair would become the characteristic feature that would distinguish her from the rest of her girl code stars.
Since her hairdressing job required working late into the night, Carly could not start her standing career for the obvious reason for the contradictory schedule.
In her late teens, Carly began to feel a terrible pain in her back, which worsened when she turned 20. She then visited a number of doctors and was found to have a benign tumor on her spine.
After an extensive search, she found a doctor who agreed to operate on her to remove the tumor. A bone in her spine was removed and replaced by a bone from her hip. Carly, who was already alone then, had to move back in with her parents to help her recover.
After her recovery, Carly took a day shift job in a limousine that gave her the nights to start her standing career. Her first MTV stand-up gig was in 2012 at the Gotham Comedy Club.
Eight months after her stand-up career, Carly has successfully auditioned for Girl Code, which should eventually be her breakthrough. She used her Girl Code break to advance her career. Carly has hosted several live events for MTV and continues to do standup.
Carly Aquilino Family
Carly has two older brothers who were born in 1988 and 1983 respectively. They all attended the same high school in Long Island. One of her brothers owns a tattoo shop in Florida called Evolution Art. Her mother works in a middle school.
Her family has greatly supported her career from day one. Aquilino once showed that her family is her biggest fan. She says they come to her shows all the time with their friends and watch all the TV shows she participates in.

Fun Facts
She got her first tattoo at the age of 14.
“I first got the lotus and built on it. It represents the three parts of the life of a lotus and life in general. They start in the mud, grow up and come out of the water and bloom,” she said about her eye-catching arm tattoo.
Carly loves boybands, her favorite is NSYNC, and her favorite song NSYNC is Tearin’ Up My Heart.
“I loved boybands dressed in jeans jumpers, wearing necklaces, and having good skin and a great smile. The disadvantage was that by the middle of the 2000s when I was old enough, all this had expired. Guys didn’t have frosted hair anymore,” she told the Wall Street Journal.
