Smart when it needs to be. Warm when it matters. And just enough edge to keep it interesting. Emma O’Neill is a multi-award-winning voice actor with over a decade of professional experience - and a lifetime of knowing how to land a line. She delivers what clients actually want: real, grounded, conversational reads that don’t sound like “voiceover.”
Emma works across radio and TV commercials, television promo, narration, corporate training, and audiobooks. She takes direction easily, adapts quickly, and consistently delivers reads that feel natural, current, and on-point.
Her clients range from major global brands to indie creatives - because good storytelling is good storytelling, no matter the budget.
Voice credits include Netflix, Discovery Channel, MGM Resorts, Mercedes-Benz, TD Bank, Cineplex, Vaseline, and the United Nations. You may have also heard her during the Academy Awards broadcast.
Emma records from a professional home studio (Neumann U87, Sennheiser 416, StudioBricks booth, Apollo Twin) and offers seamless remote sessions via Source-Connect, Zoom, or Teams. Expect clean audio, fast turnaround, and a smooth, no-drama process.
Before voiceover, Emma trained as an actor (BFA, York University) and spent years working in theatre, film, and TV - until she traded corsets and call times for a booth and a pair of sweatpants. No regrets.
Born in Dublin and raised in Canada, Emma moves easily between Irish and North American accents and brings a grounded, authentic sound to every read.
She’s also a certified yoga and movement teacher with 25+ years of experience, which means strong breath control, vocal stamina, and the ability to stay grounded under pressure.
Emma is straightforward, collaborative, and easy to work with. She shows up, does the job well, and makes your life easier.
No fluff. No ego. Just a great read.
Proudly part of the LGBTQ+ community and all about telling stories that sound like real people.
