The son of a US naval commander and an artist, Darin has lived and traveled extensively throughout the US and Europe. Much of his youth Darin learned to adapt as the perennial 'new kid in school', and after splitting his high school years between Naples, Italy and Arizona, he ended up in Los Angeles at LMU to study film. It was here at the university where he discovered his passion for acting, and 20 years later, he continues on the path.
