DaCosta was born and raised in New York and attended New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts."There was a period when I thought I wanted to be an actress, after seeing Annette Benning in American Beauty," she told FF2 Media. "But then I realized I really wanted make the movies that would have those performances in them. I think my mom actually told me I really wanted to be a writer-director, and she’s right.
Her directorial debut, Little Woods, was received with much kudos and went on to win the Nora Ephron Award at the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival, where it premiered. Now, heavy hitter Marvel Studios has chosen the young director to direct the newest film in the Captain Marvel franchise.
