Classically trained at LaGuardia H.S. and the Moscow Art Theater, Diana (unsurprisingly) started out working in classical theater. In her years spent in the Baltimore/DC area, she branched out into indie film and TV. Upon joining AEA, she moved back to NYC, where she expanded further into comedy, studying improv and sketch at UCB and forming a sketch comedy group. Most recently in addition to performing, Diana helps develop new works and has written and produced as well. She enjoys bagels, cats, and laughter.
