About Carisa Clark

Carisa Clark is a New York–trained television host, on-air personality, and SAG-AFTRA member with nearly two decades of experience in the entertainment industry. Known for her warmth, professionalism, and signature on-camera ease, she has built a dynamic career across television, radio, and commercial work.

Her first hosting break came on The Vinny and Carisa Show, co-hosting alongside legendary actor Vinny Vella, where she interviewed acclaimed guests such as Vinny Pastore and Artie Pasquale from HBO’s The Sopranos. Carisa later earned her SAG-AFTRA card through recurring roles on The Good Wife (CBS) and appeared in Gossip Girl (CW), Nurse Jackie (Showtime), and commercials for Neutrogena Clinical Care, Captain Hiram’s Resort, and Orion 180.

Beyond television, Carisa co-hosted a live two-hour radio show on 90.1 FM in Long Island and became a recurring guest on The Candace Bushnell Show on Sirius Radio — which she calls “a true honor,” discussing what it means to be powerful in your own skin. She also wrote and produced a special segment celebrating women in history for the hit podcast Grindhouse Radio.

As a brand ambassador for Toyota, Volkswagen, and Jaguar, Carisa brings authenticity and sophistication to every partnership. Trained in New York City under Patricia Stark, she studied at The William Esper Studio, The Studio, and the Deena Levy Theatre Studio. A proud Syracuse University graduate, she also took summer courses at NYU while interning at Ford Models, experiences that shaped her poise and professional presence.

Today, Carisa hosts Taste of the Town on Orange TV and co-hosts CAFE, celebrating the vibrant culinary and cultural scene across Central Florida.
