Voice Actor
Inviting, Intriguing, Illuminating...
A relatable, contemporary native British female voice artist with a smidge of sass. I was born in Yorkshire, and now live in Cambridge after my career as a data professional took me from Leicester, to Basel, and on to Amsterdam.
My background in singing performance and theatre dovetailed perfectly with my experience with technology, in the production of audiobooks.
When I'm not in my booth I likes hanging out with my friends and family, planning vacations, and achieving Jedi Level mastery of knitting...
