Arienne Mandi

Born and raised in LA, Arienne Mandi is basically the definition of a SoCal multi-hyphenate. She’s got roots from all over, which probably explains her wild range and why she can just slip into any role like it’s no big deal. Acting? Yeah, that’s been her thing since she was a kid—she was hitting the stage way before most of us could even handle a book report in front of class. Fast forward to college, she hit up Santa Monica College for a bit, then landed at UCLA, juggling Communications classes while still grinding away at auditions and indie projects. Hustle, right? She really started catching eyes after landing the lead in “Baja” back in 2018. Not some tiny indie flick that quietly disappears—nope, this one actually got a theatrical run thanks to Gravitas Ventures. TV-wise, she’s popped up in spots you’ve definitely seen: “Hawaii Five-0,” “NCIS,” and “NCIS: Los Angeles” all have her name on the credits. Plus, she took on a starring role in the second season of “In the Vault,” which, if you remember, was that Go90 series everyone was bingeing for a hot minute. Oh, and here’s the kicker—she’s a legit polyglot. Spanish, French, Farsi, English… she speaks ’em all. Makes sense, considering the parts she crushes. But honestly? It just adds to her whole “could take over the world” vibe. Kind of wild how some people really do it all.
