Maria Anna

Voice Description

My voice is warm and friendly, with confidence and a smile. It can be upbeat, conversational and relatable as well as smooth and smokey in my lower register. I also love to do sassy reads with a wink, dry/sarcastic interpretations or anything that shows off my sense of humor.

I have great vocal variety and can perform a wide range of characters, dialects, accents and regional speech patterns.

Some of my recent satisfied customers include Tide, Pantene Pro-V, Duracell, Dove NutriumMoisture, Smashbox Cosmetics, Marriott Hotels, Ann Taylor LOFT, Calvin Klein X Underwear, Gold Bond and BingoMania.

I have a steady delivery that can be used in industrials, presentations and recordings. Some of my recent corporate clients include Heinemann Publishing, Los Angeles Metro Gold Line and several PSAs.

I am not a native Spanish speaker, but I am proficient in conversational Spanish with no regional accent.
