Meet Your Actor Series - Danielle Verayo

Meet Dani (Danielle) Verayo is a queer Canadian actress, dancer, and singer who made CBBC history playing one of the network’s first queer characters on The Next Step. She’s been in the performing arts world basically her whole life, starting dance at four years old in ballet, tap, and jazz.

Her path hasn’t been the typical studio-to-industry route. When that chapter ended, Dani pivoted — hard. She’s been self-training in hip hop and other styles since 2014, working two jobs at 16 just to keep going, and studying Dance, Drama, and Music Theatre at a performing arts high school. Since then, she’s performed at the Stratford Festival and appeared on shows like The Hardy Boys, Overcompensating, and as a dancer on Ginny & Georgia.

This episode really shows that there’s no single “right” path — things shift, plans change, and if you’re willing to adapt, you can still build something that’s yours.
