Walnette Marie Santiago
Biography
Walnette Marie Santiago is an actress from San German, Puerto Rico, who was raised in the Bronx and later in Alpharetta, Georgia, and came to screen work by way of dance. She joined Starlite Dance Studio at eight and performed salsa and hip-hop professionally, a discipline that carried over once her interest in acting grew while she attended Georgia State University. After training and a showcase in 2015, talent agents scouted her, and within her first six months as a professional she landed a run of co-star parts, among them The Vampire Diaries, a pilot directed by David Nutter, and Atlanta. She also writes, using a blog to share her journey as an actress.
