Danny Gomez (He/Him)
Danny J. Gomez is from New Orleans, Louisiana, and identifies as a paraplegic male with a T-11 T-12 spinal cord injury from a 2016 mountain biking accident. A professional actor, Danny is best known for his roles in NCIS: Hawai’i, New Amsterdam, All Rise, and Martinez, Margaritas, and M**der. He is a two-time Easterseals Disability Film Challenge winner (I/0 and Check Mate) and received the Christopher Reeve Acting Scholarship in 2020. Most recently, he completed a successful Off-Broadway run in All of Me, which earned rave reviews. Before his accident, Danny danced mostly for fun, learning moves from his teen idols Justin Timberlake and Usher. Known for taking over the dance floor, he always wanted to learn choreography. Working with Infinite Flow has been exciting and challenging, helping him rebuild his confidence in dance by learning to incorporate his wheelchair into his unique style. Danny is also an ambassador for the Triumph Foundation, visiting newly injured individuals in hospitals and providing resources to help them lead productive lives. He actively advocates for greater representation of disabled actors in entertainment. Through Infinite Flow, Danny has embraced dance as a way to grow, connect, and express himself in new and creative ways.

Dushaun Thompson (He/Him)
Dushaun Thompson was born and raised in Richmond, Virginia. A dynamic performer and advocate, he has trained extensively in multiple dance styles on scholarship at West Virginia Wesleyan College and Norfolk State University. With over eight years of experience as part of a dance crew, Dushaun brings a powerful and expressive movement style to his performances. Growing up with ADHD, Dushaun had boundless energy and often struggled to sit still in school. Teachers saw it as a problem, but he later realized it was a strength. Without a mentor to guide him, he took it upon himself to become that person for others. Now, as a behavioral therapist, he helps young people with ADHD, autism, and other neurodivergent traits recognize that their differences are superpowers, not limitations. Beyond his advocacy, Dushaun’s talent has led him to exciting opportunities, including sharing his gift on the big screen in an upcoming Lionsgate movie. He joined Infinite Flow in early 2025 and found that the company’s mission perfectly aligned with his dreams and goals, providing a space where he can merge dance, storytelling, and advocacy. Grateful for life and family, Dushaun lives by the belief that “if you believe it, you can receive it.” Through his journey, he hopes to inspire others to persevere, embrace their uniqueness, and never give up on their dreams.
