About me

Short description of my voice:
Originally from New Jersey, I am now based in London; a dual citizen and genuine Yank abroad. I'm a trained actor with experience in theatre, film and voice over. I am particularly skilled and passionate about character voices in animation and gaming; with a panache for children and teen voices.

I continue my professional development at The Actors Centre in London, The VoiceOver Network and with vocal coaches in London and NYC. Always looking on the bright side of life, I'm well travelled and enjoy all sorts of creative collaborations. On set, in the booth or in the wings you'll most likely find me smiling and trying to be helpful.

A friendly, clear, warm American female sound, my voice is quite expressive in intonation and pitch. From warm and smooth, likeable and trustworthy, to sweet "princess", I can also make the use of Amercican accents: Standard; East Coast: NJ (native), NY; Southern: NC (native); as well as Italian.
Additional skills:
Actor;
Singer (Mezzo-Soprano): wedding and otherwise;
Voice Artist: American Accents (Southern/NC - native, New Jersey - native, East Coast/NY, Neutral) and Italian Accent;
Dance: Ballet, Jazz;
Instruments: Piano, Guitar (basic), Flute (basic), Recorder (basic);
Sports: Canoeing, Fencing (basic), Kayaking, Swimming, Running, Hiking, American Karate (Green-tip Yellow Belt);
US and UK Driving Licenses;
Face Painting;
80+ WPM.

Party Tricks: I can do an authentic baby cry and pigeon coo.

Always a mixture of hard work and play, I enjoy working with new people and companies, as well as the tried and tested folks, in the pursuit of various creative projects. Most likely, you'll find me smiling and trying to be helpful.

After gaining a BA in Theatre (Hons) with concentration in acting and vocal performance, now based in North London, Lisa has studied Acting in Shakespeare and Contemporary Drama at Guildhall School of Music & Drama under Doug Rintoul and Jamie Bradley and is currently studying voice with Heather Mair Thomas.
