Carpenter most recently wrapped the limited thriller series Ballistic in which she starred opposite Jonathan Ohye and Lihi Kornowski. The series follows a secret operative (Carpenter) who, after a mission is compromised, is forced into a psychological game of cat and mouse with her own mind while being hunted down by the very program that created her.
She is most notably known for her performance as ‘Debra Morgan’ on the Showtime hit series, Dexter, opposite Michael C. Hall. Deb, first a police officer and later lieutenant, is the sister of the titular serial killer who moonlights as a blood spatter analyst for the Miami-Dade Metro Police Department. Carpenter reprised her role in the continuation series Dexter: New Blood which aired on Showtime in 2022.
Additional credits include the NBC series, The Enemy Within, opposite Morris Chestnut; the Craig Zahler features Dragged Across Concrete and Brawl in Cell Block 99; the Scott Derickson film The Exorcism of Emily Rose opposite Laura Linney; and the CBS series Limitless, based on the film of the same name.
She is repped by Gersh and Untitled Entertainment
