Welcome.
Thanks for dropping by and feel free to say hi!
As a kid, my sister and I used to spend hours at the library reading through everything before they closed. Although she could read just fine by herself, I used to ask her (maybe more like beg) for me to read to her.
“I’ll do funny voices!”
“I’ll add sound effects!”
“Just sit back and relax! It’ll be like a movie!”
As big sisters go, she probably thought I was an incessant buzzing in her ear and wanted to do absolutely anything to shut me up. But the times she did allow me to go into full narrator mode and impersonate dwarves, ancient mythical gods or unexpected nobodies turned heroes made me feel as though I had just been given the keys to a boba tea shop (yes, not candy - that’s a bit overrated).
My love for narrating and reading led me to study English Literature at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign where I wrote my thesis on Wuthering Heights.
More specifically…the Yorkshire soil.
Yeah, you read that right.
The soil.
I’m so weird.
Fast forward many years later, I am fortunate and blessed to be based in the Chicagoland area as a VO artist and on-camera talent.
When I’m not recording, auditioning or filming, you’ll find me running while listening to some true crime podcast, audiobook (of course) or Graphic Audio adaptation.
Here’s me and my partner in crime, Oreo! Always supportive and patiently waiting for me as I finish up my recording.
Sick of me yet? More fun facts:
Born and raised in Chicago
My parents immigrated from Taiwan in the late 1990’s
Grew up speaking Mandarin Chinese, Taiwanese and English. My dad has worked in Japan since I was a kid. He’s fluent and brought a lot of Japanese culture and media into my childhood (hello anime)
Took French for 10 years
Attended a Korean church for almost a decade. I have a lot of Korean phrases, songs and food stuck in my head all the time.
Had a brief stint as a radio DJ and copywriter for on-air commercials
