Ever since I was a child I have enjoyed animated shows and movies. I would always emulate my favorite characters, and practice their voices until they sounded perfect in my head. Recently, I participated in a costume contest where I performed as a known character from a Japanese animated series. The performance included a monologue in Japanese. The contest was being judged by three voice actors, Vic Mignogna, Patrick Seitz, and Mike Coleman. I won the Judges Choice Award for the costume and performance. After the contest Vic and Mike approached me and asked if I had ever considered doing voice work. As much as I enjoyed emulating voices all my life, I had never considered it. Vic and Mike urged me to look into doing voice work, and I began to research it. I am now aspiring to make this my career. I have taken Japanese language lessons, but I am not fluent yet. I also took performing arts and drama classes throughout school.
