Daemon is an American actor and producer; born in Carson, California to Maria Celia Soto and Esteban Pedroza, he was raised in Wilmington, California, where his mother and brother, Jose, still reside. He grew up playing baritone in marching band and has had a passion for Drum & Bugle Corps ever since. His interest in performing arts was sparked during a field show rendition of "The Phantom of the Opera" in 1989 by Santa Clara Drum & Bugle Corps.Upon graduation from High School, he entered the Army and spent 23 years in the Army with assignments in Germany, Washington, Kansas, and Texas with deployments to Bosnia-Herzegovina with the 1st Armored Division (1996), Jordan with 69th Air Defense (2012), Afghanistan with 172d Infantry Brigade (2010), and two deployments to Iraq with the 1st Infantry Division (2004, 2006).Several years after retiring from the Army, Daemon heard of extras being needed at Fort Hood for a miniseries in April 2017. Anxious to get back in uniform or be around a military environment, he jumped at the call for a part as a background actor in National Geographic's The Long Road Home (2017), and was cast, alas, as an insurgent. To balance out, he also donned the Army uniform as a body double to several of the Soldiers during filming.Jokingly, he also attributes his wife's and her friends' background participation as band members during the graduation rehearsal scene on "Beverly Hills: 90210" (her high school was used as site for the show as well as for TV show "Buffy") as motivation to be a background artist in order to match her.Thanks to phenomenal support by the crew, from casting to wardrobe to PA's, one in particular who seems to go above and beyond to ensure that all of the backgrounds are well taken care of, Daemon's initial exposure to the entertainment industry has been exciting and has inspired him to seek further projects that may need a hand as a PA, as well as sparked an interest in searching for other roles once his current mission...project... is complete, especially those that would require him to be in military uniforms again.Though film has captured his interest, he aims to keep working on his degree in Cyber Security with a minor in Forensics. In his spare time, he supports the choir director, his wife, at church by playing the baritone and arranging music parts for a wonderfully talented flute player.Daemon lives in Harker Heights, Texas with his wife Debby and several children.
