"Danny J. Gomez is a professional actor/model based in Los Angeles, California. Since 2018, he has acted in award-winning films and multiple television shows, including NBC's hit series "New Amsterdam." His work on national advertisements for Target, Facebook, and Zappos have all been successes as well. In 2019, Danny was the "Person With Determination" male winner of ModelHunt's international model search-- a worldwide competition with more than 700+ total applicants. He was also awarded the Christopher Reeve acting scholarship at the 2020 Media Access awards.
However, these achievements have not come without adversity. In 2005, Danny lost his Louisiana home to Hurricane Katrina. And in 2016, he almost died in a mountain biking accident-- an event that left him paralyzed from the waist down instead. But what has reset and shifted his life has also introduced him to his life's passion and commitment to advocacy. After relearning basic life skills at Rancho Los Amigos National Rehabilitation Center, he became an ambassador for the non-profit Triumph Foundation, connecting the local community to fun activities like wheelchair sports. And every year, he is an active participant in the Easterseals Disability Film Challenge, raising awareness for better representation for disabled actors in Hollywood."
