The middle child of an electrical engineer father and homemaker mother, Diane was born in Los Angeles, but grew up in Danville, California.

She studied dance in high school and considered pursuing it as a career, but never thought it could be a viable one. That all changed after she moved to Los Angeles to attend UCLA, where she began studying dance seriously at professional studios in LA. After graduating summa cum laude with a degree in communications studies, Diane pursued her dance career full-time and soon was performing on television shows and tours and in films.

Dancing segued into a successful commercial career and Diane now has over 35 commercials to her credit. Television acting work soon followed, with appearances on King of Queens, Family Law and 7th Heaven. Her film credits include Impostor, & You'll Never Wieze in This Town Again. Diane currently hosts the show Filter, a top ten countdown show for the cable network, G4 — a new network dedicated to video games.
