About Yari De Leon... Raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Yari De Leon is the youngest of seven children. A natural performer, her mother began entering her in talent shows while she was still in middle school. Her talent blossomed when she and her mother moved to Coral Springs, Florida when she was eleven years old.
In high school she studied drama and her vivacious personality soon landed her a cheerleading position. Her passion for talent shows continued and by age fourteen she won Best Imitator and Dancer in the Young Talent Contest in Miami, Florida. Years later, Yari was thrilled when she was selected to appear on The Cristina Show, the Latin equivalent of Oprah, to imitate her idol, Thalia. She later returned to the same show with a Hip Hop and Pop dance troupe.
Yari De Leon honed her skills at the Acting School of South Florida before moving to Los Angeles in 2008. She continues to immerse herself in training studying with Michael Petted and Rob Brownstein at the Beverly Hills Playhouse, with Brian Reise at Brian Reise Studios and at Cast Away Studios with Doug Warhit. She also completed an intensive one year program at the prestigious New York Film Academy.
