All the brainiacs in Genoa City better smart their engines, because someone is about to give them a run for their money.
Actress Mara McCaffrey has joined The Young and the Restless as nerdy gal Natalie, a recurring character previously named in the original casting call as Ilsa.
According to Soaps In Depth, Natalie -- who's described as "a tech wiz with a passion for cyber life" -- will share the screen with Kevin (Greg Rikaart), who met the beauty-with-a-brain in Switzerland. And it may be more than just her hacker knowledge that drives him crazy!
But how will Mariah (Camryn Grimes) react to her new competition? Find out when McCaffrey makes her Genoa City debut on Friday, January 15.
