A STORYTELLER
BEFORE I KNEW IT WAS A JOB

EXPERIENCE THAT GOES BEYOND THE BOOTH

My experience spans a wide mix of sectors - wellness, entertainment, performance, investment, marketing, real estate, teaching, coaching and presenting - and that breadth genuinely matters to how I work as a voiceover artist. It means I don’t just read a script. I understand the context behind it. Whether the message is educational, commercial, sensitive, persuasive or quietly reassuring, I draw on real-world experience to give the words meaning - not just sound.

I’ve been telling stories for as long as I can remember.

It started with acting, completing various grades with the Guildhall School of Speech and Drama, then moved into dance, choreography and teaching. Later came marketing and copywriting – learning how words land, how messages persuade, and how tone changes everything.

Over the last decade, that thread has found its most natural home in voiceover and narration.

The common theme?
Performance, communication, and knowing when to step forward – and when to step back.

How it all began (with a lot of giggling)

My first real brush with voiceover came at 13, back when audio meant radios and cassette tapes.

I had the chance to work with Robert Llewellyn (aka Kryten from Red Dwarf) on GCSE science study recordings. It was equal parts fascinating and completely hilarious.

We were regularly kicked out of the studio for laughing too much – largely due to a teenage me trying to stay professional while Kryten earnestly mispronounced the word “faeces”.
I’ll let you imagine the rest.

finding my way back

Years later, I found myself back behind the mic as a Production Assistant at Videojug, recording a high volume of voiceovers for their “how-to” video library.

Then in 2015 – facing an imminent redundancy from a marketing role within an investment company – I decided to stop circling voiceover and properly commit.

I launched my voiceover business, leaned into everything I’d learned along the way, and haven’t looked back since.

How that shows up in my work

All of this experience feeds directly into how I approach voiceover today.

I’m rapid, responsive and reliable, yes – but I’m also thoughtful, context-aware and comfortable adapting tone depending on who’s listening and why.

That’s why clients trust me with:

  • Sensitive internal communications

  • Long-form learning content

  • Brand storytelling that needs credibility

  • Scripts that require nuance rather than noise

The voice is calm.
The delivery is intentional.
And the experience behind it runs deep.

Your Questions Answered

If you have any questions that I don't cover below then please don't hesitate to contact me.

Do I provide custom demos/auditions?

Absolutely! Let me know your requirements and specifications and I'll provide a bespoke demo.

My middle name, Catherine.

I recorded my first voiceover when I was 12 and gained a year’s experience as a teenager. Later on, in my mid twenties, I worked for a production company for 18 months primarily recording VOs and followed this up with some ad-hoc voiceover work for a local advertising agency. However, it was in 2016 that my career took off when I set up a home studio and began actively seeking work.

Always standing up. It’s much better for breath control and for letting the voice sit naturally. Sitting down is also a killer!

All over the world. I have recorded voiceovers for clients in Singapore, Dubai, Oman, Hong Kong, Israel, India, Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands, France, South Africa, Nigeria, the UK, Spain, the USA, Jamaica, Canada, Italy, UAE and the list goes on.

I studied Guildhall Speech and Drama as a child. I have a BA Hons in Theatre Dance from London Studio Centre with theatre and acting training included as well as dance. I also have over 25 years of teaching experience (it’s imperative to know how to use your voice properly!)

Yes. I speak Castilian Spanish fluently.

Please contact me to provide me with details about the voiceover you need recording and I’ll provide a personalised quote.

Will Smith or Dawn French. I think they’d both make me laugh myself silly. And laughing is pure medicine.
