About Me
Hello! I am a Phoenix based actor, director, teacher, and acting coach. I have taught in the theatre department at MiraCosta College and The University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I currently teach Drama to young children, grades K-4. I served as the Artistic Director for Oceanside Theatre Company, a 200 seat non-profit 501(c)(3) theatre located in the heart of downtown Oceanside. I co-directed the Oceanside Theatre Company Youth Academy, which incorporates educational outreach, youth acting classes, and full length musical productions. I am a 200HR nationally certified yoga teacher, a respondent for the American College Theatre Festival, and the proud mother of an amazing seven-year-old boy!
I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, where I realized my love of acting at a very young age. After immersing myself in theatre during my high school years, I knew that I wished to pursue a career in acting. I earned my BFA in Acting/Directing from The University of Arizona in Tucson, AZ, and my MFA in Performance from The University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
I lived and worked in Los Angeles for ten years, acting in television, film, commercial (national and regional), and print work. I am a member of SAG/AFTRA and am AEA Eligible. I studied Stella Adler Technique under renowned teacher and director, Arthur Mendoza. My technique and teaching style is a blend of a Stanislavski method-based approach, Stella Adler technique, and integrated voice and movement training.
I am currently represented for film, television, and print work through Dani’s Agency. For more information, or to hire me for an upcoming project, please contact me through my "CONTACT" page or email me at dhyanadahl@gmail.com.
