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 critically acclaimed 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, No Hard Feelings and The Curse of the Necklace. 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 by both audiences and critics alike, being mentioned in The New York Times, The LA Times, and Entertainment Weekly, as a “must watch.” And in December 2024, she came back for the sequel— Adult Swim’s Yule Log 2, which made Variety’s list of best horror movies of 2024.

Danielia has worked successfully in the commercial field as well, starring in ads for companies such as Aveeno, Budlight, Ouidad and as the lead in CNCO’s “De Cero” music video, which has over 88 million views on youtube. 

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