Dack Virnig

Born and raised in Minnesota, Dack Virnig is in the fourth generation of a Deaf family. While growing up, he attended Minnesota State Academy for the Deaf (MSAD) and later California School for the Deaf at Fremont (CSDF) and graduated in 2007.  He attended Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) and obtained his degree in 2011.

He credits his mom for his storytelling passion with her numerous fairy tales and her beautiful signs. This passion led to his first ASL contest, where he placed first. That is when his imagination suddenly emerged and led to his involvement with high-school dramas, five performances at the Rochester Institute of Technology and eventually a deaf movie.

DackCube Entertainment was an outgrowth of his YouTube fan base who encouraged him to inspire the world with how awesome and beautiful ASL can be. Since then, Dack has performed at universities, deaf schools and numerous deaf events where he shares his rich experience in ASL.
