Transcription
Early life
Doan was born and raised in Abbotsford, British Columbia.[1]
She first developed an interest in acting in grade 9 when she took drama classes as an elective. She started technical training in dance at the age of 10.[2]
Career
As a young adult, she later performed as a dancer in the Opening Ceremonies for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver and as a back-up dancer for Michael Bublé. In addition, she's worked as a dancer to other music videos for recording artists including Big Time Rush and Marianas Trench as well as worked on Fox's So You Think You Can Dance.[2]
While she's made small appearances on shows like ABC's Once Upon a Time and TV Land's Impastor, her big break came when she was cast in the Disney Channel made-for-television film Descendants as Lonnie, the daughter of Mulan and Li Shang. Disney's Descendants expanded into a successful franchise including prequel live-action mini series (which aired before the initial film), a sequel and an animated spin-off.
In 2016, she was cast in a major recurring role in History Channel's Vikings as Yidu for season four.[3] Following that, she starred in a major role Verizon (go90) and AwesomenessTV's webseries Guidance where she played twin sisters.[4]
In 2017, she joined the main cast of Cinemax's Warrior as the character of Mai Ling as a Series Regular. The series is produced by filmmaker Justin Lin, based on an original concept by the late Bruce Lee.[5]
Personal life
In 2019 she became engaged to actor Manny Jacinto.[6]
