Glen York | Voice over actor

glen@glenyorkvo.com ★ source-connect: glenyorkvo ★ https://glenyorkvo.com MEET GLEN YORK: A VOICE WITH PRESENCE, PURPOSE, AND POWER ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Glen York never set out to become a voice actor. His story began in military formations, aircraft cockpits, disaster zones, and emergency operations centers. He served as a U.S. Army tank mechanic, gun truck commander, and later became a certified helicopter pilot, aerial drone operator, and emergency management specialist. His job was to stay calm, speak clearly, and act decisively under pressure. It was here—leading soldiers in combat, briefing government agencies, training aviation students, and coordinating responses to disasters—that Glen honed the core skill every great voice actor needs: the ability to communicate with confidence, clarity, and authenticity. Today, that same strength lives in the sound of his voice. Smooth yet strong. Confident but approachable. Whether he’s voicing a nationwide commercial or an internal eLearning module, Glen brings a voice that resonates with truth, professionalism, and a lived-in sense of trust. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FROM THE MILITARY TO THE MIC: A JOURNEY OF MASTERY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ After more than a decade of service in both military and civilian government operations—including emergency management roles across California and Georgia, and most recently as a regional operations manager for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency—Glen transitioned into voiceover to explore his creativity and connect with people in a new way. Voiceover wasn’t just a career pivot; it became a personal mission. With experience in sectors like aviation, cybersecurity, infrastructure, and chemical safety, Glen offers something few voice talents can: real-world expertise across highly technical and emotionally charged fields. That’s why clients in fields as diverse as disaster relief, real estate, healthcare, and automotive keep coming back—because Glen doesn’t just read the script. He lives it. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ A VOICE FOR BRANDS THAT NEED TO BE BELIEVED ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Glen’s vocal signature has been described as “approachable but authoritative.” Imagine the guy next door who also happens to be a subject matter expert—relatable, yet resolutely professional. His vocal range spans from warm and conversational to powerful and dramatic, making him a versatile asset for: ▪ Commercials (TV, radio, digital) ▪ Documentary narration ▪ Corporate and brand videos ▪ Explainers and animated content ▪ eLearning and instructional modules ▪ Disaster preparedness and crisis response ▪ Automotive and aviation content ▪ Sports promos and event hype He’s especially drawn to commercial and documentary work, where his love for storytelling and his command of tone and rhythm shine brightest. Dreaming of becoming the next iconic documentary narrator, Glen continues to train, expand his vocal range, and pursue projects that stretch his creative boundaries. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ TRUSTED BY CLIENTS WHO CARE ABOUT QUALITY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ From nationally recognized brands like Lowe’s Home Improvement to mission-driven organizations like Great Jobs KC and Altec, Glen has delivered compelling voiceovers that move audiences and drive results. But it’s not just the brands that matter—it’s the stories behind them. One project that stood out was a recruiting video for Lowe’s. Glen had once worked there himself, shortly after his military service. When he learned that the on-screen talent was a fellow veteran, the project took on new meaning. It was more than narration—it was representation. Clients routinely praise Glen’s: ▪ Speed and responsiveness ▪ Attention to detail ▪ Ability to take direction and adapt ▪ Consistent, broadcast-quality sound ▪ Professionalism and clear communication “Glen was a pleasure to work with—professional, took feedback really well, and was able to execute it immediately. I would love to work with Glen again.” — Alia Burley, Dot Dot Dash ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ BUILT FOR SPEED. READY FOR ANYTHING. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Glen records from a custom-built, acoustically treated studio in Atlanta, GA, equipped with: ▪ Sennheiser MKH416 microphone ▪ AudioSigma MicHero DSP Interface ▪ MacBook Pro running Twisted Wave ▪ Source-Connect (standard) for live-directed sessions With deep knowledge of acoustics, Glen built his own panels to ensure pristine recording quality. He offers same-day turnaround during business hours and is always prepared for live sessions via Source-Connect or the client’s preferred platform. Services include: ▪ Voice recording ▪ Audio editing and clean-up ▪ Script consultation ▪ Video syncing (upon request) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ THE ART OF AUTHENTICITY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ What sets Glen apart isn’t just his sound—it’s his story. It’s the veteran who understands discipline. The pilot who knows precision. The public servant who believes in preparation. And the father who values time, balance, and legacy. His natural voice is smooth, strong, and calming—like a late-night radio DJ—but his range allows for high-energy sports promos and emotionally gripping narrations. Glen channels both grit and grace into his reads. Each line carries the weight of experience, the depth of character, and the care of someone who knows what’s at stake. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ LIVING THE SCRIPT, LINE BY LINE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Every project begins with immersion. Glen doesn’t just glance at a script—he studies it, meditates on it, and finds the moment in his life that mirrors its message. Whether it’s a safety training module or a heartfelt nonprofit PSA, Glen inserts himself into the world of the story. His goal is simple: to help people be heard, understood, and remembered. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ A VOICE THAT CARRIES MORE THAN SOUND ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ As a Black, African American, BIPOC, and disabled veteran, Glen is intentional about representation in the voiceover industry. While he’s still exploring how best to advocate and uplift these identities, his presence in the booth already carries weight. He plans to use his platform not just for projects—but for purpose. Long-term, Glen is working toward launching a nonprofit supporting housing and mental health for fellow veterans. In the meantime, he sees voiceover as both a business and a vehicle for change. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FAMILY, FREEDOM, AND THE FUTURE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ For Glen, success is measured not just in bookings, but in freedom. Freedom to work from home. Freedom to spend more time with his children. Freedom to live creatively and on his own terms. “I burned the boats,” he says. “There’s no going back to traditional jobs. This is it—and I’m all in.” When not recording, Glen enjoys family time, gaming, and soon, collecting Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering cards. He approaches voiceover with the same passion he brings to life: fully present, endlessly curious, and always grounded in purpose. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ READY TO BRING YOUR MESSAGE TO LIFE? ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Reach out directly to work with Glen York: glen@glenyorkvo.com | Source-Connect: glenyorkvo | https://glenyorkvo.com ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ KEYWORDS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Genres: commercial, corporate narration, explainer video, documentary, eLearning, training module, promo, hype reel, internal narration, brand video, public service announcement Voice Styles: conversational, authoritative, warm, gritty, calm, energetic, smooth, confident, professional, dramatic, down-to-earth, high-energy, deep, animated, relatable, reassuring Industries: military, aviation, emergency management, government, infrastructure, cybersecurity, chemical safety, real estate, education, public health, nonprofit, automotive, travel, hospitality, sports, tech, retail Placement: TV, radio, social media, OTT, streaming, pre-roll, internal comms, live event, museum exhibit, mobile apps, podcast intros Identity: African American, Black, BIPOC, US Army veteran, disabled veteran, disabled, male voice actor, American male voice, veteran-owned business Capabilities: broadcast-quality audio, remote live direction, fast turnaround, Source Connect, audio editing, script consultation, video syncing Equipment: Sennheiser MKH416, AudioSigma MicHero, Twisted Wave, acoustically treated booth Personality: disciplined, creative, grounded, professional, relatable, real-world experience, values-driven, mission-focused, efficient, collaborative
