About

4th Golden Voice of the Speaking Clock.

Known for her plausible, professional and resonant voice, Sara also maintains an easy, soothing and inviting style which holds authority yet delivers it with sincerity, warmth, openness and understanding.

Excellent choice for documentary and corporate narration, talking books, and of course a wide variety of TV & radio ads.

Sara's extensive range from cute kids to drunken old ladies, and the vast number of characters performed, including mimicking and creation from scratch, leaves audiences in disbelief time after time that they all come from the same person.

Directable, flexible, professional and fun to work with.

A first class, well-known, all-rounder with extensive worldwide experience.
