Hello there, I'm Dana Pacheco. Here's my story.
My passion as a performer began at the tender age of 5, where I’d host living room performances of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.” To this day, I can't resist a 7th inning stretch!
After getting my BA in Theatre Arts at San Diego State University, I moved to Los Angeles working as an actor, voice over artist, writer, director, producer, and YouTuber. For over 10 years, I’ve created comedy music videos, web series, sketches, commercials, podcasts, and live shows for major brand campaigns, in the digital space. My sketch comedy group, Awkward Kids, has over 8 million views on Youtube and we’ve performed on some fun stages such as UCB, The Improv, Nerdmelt, VidCon, and Playlist Live.
I’ve studied with Lesly Kahn, Upright Citizen's Brigade, Howard Fine, and the Groundlings.
I also work with kids! When I am not on set or auditioning, I am a voice over/acting coach for ages 12 and under. I also have experience as children’s theatre teacher and director, a swim instructor, and a softball coach. The kiddos call me “Ms. Dana”!
Other fun facts about me… I love playing sports, my plant collection, making pottery, epic game nights, all things vintage, and grilling burgers. Oh, and this one time, on TV, I won a car on the Price is Right.
