Tanee McCall stars on NBC.com's first online original series, "Coastal Dreams" as Stacey, a young hot twenty-something who tries to escape the boredom of every-day life by visiting the town of Pacific Shores with her best friend since high school, Zoe.

McCall was born in Boston, Massachusetts, but her family moved around the country for most of her pre-teen life. The arts of dance and theatre were the one constant that kept her focused.

At the age of 13, she convinced her parents to let her attend the performing art's boarding school, Idyllwild Arts Academy in California, where she immersed herself in the arts. Tanee continued to train rigorously while attending Southern Methodist University. She graduated a year early with a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Dance Performance and headed to Los Angeles the week after graduation.

McCall has danced in a variety of films, commercials, television shows, videos and tours before hanging up her dancing shoes to concentrate on acting.

Fans will know McCall from films such as "You Got Served," "Coach Carter," and "Hairspray." She also appeared in small roles on "The Shield," "All of Us" and "Everybody Hates Chris."

She currently resides in Los Angeles.
