Description

How do you describe a voice? Well Nancy Wolfson of Braintracks Audio described mine thus: “Emma's voice recalls a cabernet I'd have to cut with a steak knife.”

Emma is currently being heard on all London's bus routes, Overground trains and Riverbus - she is the voice of Transport for London's iBus system, and will soon be heard on the new Elizabeth Line (Crossrail).

Age range - 30/ 40 something, utterly approachable but aspirational too!

Warm, friendly, confident and approachable. Ideal for commercials, tv documentaries and naration, audio books, corporate and IVR telephone systems. A versatile voiceover artist, suitable for hard or soft sell, straight delivery or something with more personality! Her clarity is particularly useful when recording for audiences for whom English is not their first language.

Accents include well spoken standard English, 'gentle North Western'.
... and they say 'Great work, fast turnaround, open to adjustments. Highly recommended!'
