Danielia Maximillian-Almeda was born into a multi-ethnic family in the Bronx, NYC. From an early age she trained in Tae Kwon Do and Karate, and spent much of her youth sparring in her father’s dojang. 

She has performed in Off-Broadway sketch shows as well as commercially successful television series and films, such as Amazon Prime’s Swarm, opposite Dominique Fishback and Billie Eilish, Hulu’s Pam & Tommy, where she read Seth Rogan’s fortune, Liongate’s Swimming with Sharks, opposite Diane Krueger and Donald Sutherland, as well as True Lies, Law & Order, FBI, 9-1-1, and No Hard Feelings to name a few. Danielia also starred in the cult-classic Adult Swim’s Yule Log, released on Adult Swim and HBO MAX, as the sexy podcaster Holly. The film was well received critically, being mentioned in The New York Times, The LA Times, and Entertainment Weekly, as a “must watch.” In January 2023, Eddie Alcazar’s Divinity, produced by Stephen Soderbergh starring Stephen Dorf and Scott Bakula, became an official selection at the Sundance Film Festival and has received critical acclaim and nationwide distribution. Danielia has worked successfully in the commercial field, starring in numerous ads for companies such as Aveeno, Budlight, and Ouidad. She also starred in the music video “De Cero” by CNCO, which has over 81 million views on youtube. 

When Danielia is not acting, she illustrates, writes poetry, and script consults on projects such as Netflix’s Love, Death, and Robots.
