Flexible, optimistic, bold, kind, clever, and silly. Many ingredients come with making Daniella Zacarias.
Born and raised in Miami, Florida amidst a chaotic yet loving Cuban family. Daniella attended New World School of the Arts and earned a Bachelors in Fine Arts; specializing in Acting from the University of Florida. It was there she honed her craft for four years—studying and performing a wide variety of plays. All while achieving feats such as performing at the Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival and becoming a finalist for the Irene Ryan Scholarship. On July 2025, she attended the Midsummer Oxford Program at BADA, (the British Academy of Dramatic Arts) where she studied classical texts ranging from William Shakespeare to Anton Chekhov.
At the very root, she is a daughter of God. Ever since she gave her life to Christ in 2024, she is determined to tell His story in all that her hands may find. Whether that be through acting, writing, or directing, Daniella is eager to collaborate and tell stories that are deeply rooted in truth. She is a character actor, a wild card who can mold and shape herself into any piece that is necessary to make the picture whole. You want a power hungry Scottish king? A grieving mother? Mort from Madagascar? Take your pick. There’s plenty of voices in her head for you to pick from. Most of all, Daniella Zacarias is a massive nerd, a nurturing sister, and a visionary leader with a big heart. She is driven to serve, encourage, and love others the way Christ does for us every single day.
