	Dana Fatima Kenneh

I am Dana, 32 years old, born and raised in Cologne, Germany, to a German mom and a Liberian father. I have lived in several places throughout my lifetime, including London, Spokane (WA, USA) and now Amsterdam. I came to Amsterdam to study and I completed my degree in Fashion & Management, in the hope of pursuing a career in fashion afterwards, until I realised that my actual passion and interests lie in storytelling, and bringing characters to life. I still have a huge interest in fashion and how fashion can be used to tell stories and enhance a character‘s believability, but after working full-time within the fashion (marketing) industry for 2.5 years, I have now made the switch from part-time (next to my main job) commercial modeling & acting to full-time.
I have explored improv comedy for a year at Boom Chicago Theatre in Amsterdam and have actively been taking acting classes at Mulholland Academy Amsterdam since September 2023.
Next to acting classes I also enjoy doing kick-boxing, CrossFit, taking the occasional yoga class and finding my way back into sewing.
I am a native German speaker and otherwise speak fluent English and Dutch quite well (though I do still have a bit of a German accent I have been told).
I do have experience in front of the camera thanks to my commercial
Modeling background and have been fortunate enough to have been part of several campaigns, commercials and company videos, including Heineken, Kia, Ford, Basic Fit, Moon Magic jewellery, Keune hair cosmetics, Sanofi Allegra, Diamantrad, Nederlandse Postcode Loterij to name some.
As of recently I can also proudly add a small role within the German TV show “Der Amsterdam Krimi” to my acting CV.
