Early life

Branstine was born in Irvine, California, to an American father, Bruce, and a Canadian mother, Carol Freeman, from Toronto. She has two older sisters, Cassidy and Constance, both of whom play collegiate tennis. Her cousin Freddie Freeman is a professional baseball first baseman and MVP for the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball (MLB). Carson began playing tennis at the age of 7. After spending a few years training at the USTA, Branstine accepted an offer from Tennis Canada to train at the National Training Centre in Montreal, starting in October 2016.

She began her modeling career in Montreal after being discovered walking on Saint Laurent Boulevard in Downtown Montreal.
