ABOUT
Hi, I'm Emlyn.
By day, I’m a voiceover artist and director, spending my hours in a small, dark booth. It’s my sanctuary—mostly because once I step out, I’m greeted by my 8 and 10-year-old daughters. They aren’t "small" anymore; they’re full-sized humans with big personalities who keep my life as unpredictable as a live set.
Comedy & Improv Roots
My foundation is built on the world of spontaneous performance. I’ve trained and performed with the best in the business, including The Second City, Upright Citizens Brigade (UCB), and The Magnet Theater. I’ve also spent years on the other side of the podium as an instructor at the Washington Improv Theater, all while performing in iMusical, a long-form musical improv troupe. That "yes-and" energy carries over into my stand-up, where I’ve performed at iconic clubs like the Punch Line and Helium.
In the Booth
In the audiobook world, I’ve spent over 13 years as a narrator and two years as an Artistic Director at Graphic Audio. I don’t just read the words; I understand the architecture of a performance. Whether it's high-octane action, a nuanced commercial, or a multi-character children’s book, I bring a director’s ear and an improviser’s soul to every project.
Beyond the Booth
And for the fans of a certain global phenomenon: Yes, if you recognize a voice from the world of Pokémon, your ears aren't deceiving you. It was an absolute blast to be part of that universe, and it’s a highlight of the "10,000 voices" I've gotten to play with over the years. You might also catch my face on TV or in a movie every now and again.
To sum it up: I’m a mom, a director, and a performer navigating adulthood by lending my voice to every medium I can. Whether you need a voice that is captivating, relatable, or just plain silly, I’m your gal. And thanks to those years in musical improv, my bedtime stories are essentially Off-Broadway productions.
