Eventually, she relocated to New York.
On Stargate SG-1 (1997), she guest-starred as the original "Oma Desala" in the 2000 episode "Maternal Instinct," a character later portrayed by Mel Harris and becoming central to the series.
Carla is a mother of two and enjoys talents and hobbies such as playing guitar, singing, cooking, baking, sewing, painting, drawing, and crafting.
