At age five, America and her little sister, Catalina was brought to the private island of billionaire Mr. Gales, where a high-end medical facility was set up.

The character made her live-action film debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (2022), portrayed by Xochitl Gomez.
