My name is Maria Pendolino and I'm an award-winning full-time professional voiceover actor. I'm the voice you've been looking for! You'll recognize my voice from high profile national commercials and industrials. My voice is warm, conversational, non-announcery, friendly, upbeat, relatable, confident, and sassy. Age-wise, I'm a youthful sounding millennial and typically book projects in the 25-45 age range. I can age-down to sound more Gen Z in the style of creators and influencers on TikTok and Instagram, but I can also and age-up to sound more Gen X with authority and confidence. I'm here to bring your words to life from my state-of-the-art professional recording studio and make sure your message is heard above the rest. Message, email or call me to work on your project today! You're probably *not* looking for celebrity impressions BUT - if you're looking for a celebrity sound-alike for famous folks like Anna Kendrick, Kristen Bell, Emma Stone, Rashida Jones, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Lawrence, Julie Bowen, Beanie Feldstein, Allison Janney, Tina Fey, Kate McKinnon, Amy Poehler, Janeane Garafolo, Ellie Kemper, Elizabeth Banks, Rebel Wilson, Melissa McCarthy, Kathryn Hahn, Florence Pugh, Zendaya, Heidi Gardner, Selena Gomez, Kate McKinnon, Chloe Fineman, Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, Tig Notaro, Nikki Glaser, and many more - you have come to the right place! I watch a lot of TV (including reality TV!) and I don't fast forward thru the commercials - so I'm really familiar with the types of reads that brands are using celebrities for.

For animation, video games and cartoons, I can perform a wide range of character voices and accents. CORPORATE NARRATION AND INDUSTRIALS I do a lot of work in the medical, corporate, pharmaceutical, industrial and e-learning space. I specialize in bringing a friendly and approachable voice to scripts that can be very jargon-heavy and complex. I'm not afraid of long, hard to pronounce words! I know how to make it sound like I'm just their work friend from one cubicle over. SPECIAL SKILLS I secretly love speed talking, so send me that disclaimer, sweepstakes and legal & fair balance copy! I'm also a singer and love to work on character singing or jingles. I was a musical theatre performer in NYC before becoming a full-time voice actor and secretly, Ursula the Sea Witch from The Little Mermaid might be my favorite animated lady! OUTSIDE OF VOICE ACTING In addition to my voice acting career, you can currently see me on television acting in Netflix's TEAM TOON as Eunice, the lunch lady. I was also a recurring character on Lifetime's hit show ARMY WIVES and a guest star on Nat Geo. My husband and I were also on an episode of HGTV's flagship show HOUSE HUNTERS. I'm also a budding stand-up comedian and take comedy classes at Helium Comedy Club. Perhaps I'll be performing in a city near you someday soon? I have five rescue cats named Two Scoops, Mozzie, Panini, Rigatoni, and Ravioli. They're always bouncing in and out of my studio, so collectively they are known as "The Studio Floofs." Please feel free to contact me directly - I'm always happy to hear from you!

My first time working with Maria was a joy. She responded quickly, voiced a great Test clip for client approval, then sent me several perfect reads of the final script. I hope to use her again.
