Join these happy clients ( Best Buy, Walmart, Martha Stewart Weddings, Home Depot, Spectrum Health…) and hire Maria for your next project! Maria has voiced video games, radio ads, apps, company videos, explainer videos, safety videos, IVR/telephony, audiobooks, and animation. Starting out as an on-camera actress, Maria made the switch to voice over, and hasn’t looked back since! She’s trained with The Voice Shop in New York City, Emmy award winning director, Stevie Vallance, Cathy Weseluck, and Michael Dobson. Based in beautiful Vancouver BC, Maria has a home studio, as well as access to local studios for Source Connect/ISDN sessions. She works with a small team of talented audio engineers for every project to provide you with top notch sound! Need a voice that is conversational , warm , authentic , “ real person ”, bright , girl next door , mom , millennial , nerdy , cool , or even robotic (a la Alexa / Siri) ? Maria may be the fit perfect for you and your client! Maria has a picture book manuscript in the works, and enjoys jogging alongside her grumpy Jack Russell terrier (even on wet Vancouver days!). She loves cooking, loves eating, and makes one phenomenal chocolate cake.
