In August 2015, Mason debuted in her role as Ofelia Salazar, on the Walking Dead companion series, Fear the Walking Dead.[9]
In Spring 2014, she debuted her role of DEA Special Agent Talia Del Campo on the CBS series NCIS: Los Angeles, which has since become a recurring role.

Mason was born in Linköping, Sweden,[10] and moved to the United States with her family at the age of 12.[11] She was raised around the Chicago area. She currently lives in Los Angeles, California with her husband David Denman.[12][13][14][15]
