About

I'm Joanna and my vocal style is warm, soft, and gentle. It's the kind of voice that soothes and draws you in from the very first sentence. I adore character work and giving voice to characters is something I've done since I was a little girl, long before it had a name or became a profession. My accents range from the painstakingly accurate to completely made up fantasy voices because sometimes a story just needs a voice you've never quite heard before.

I also work under the name Frances (Fran) Gregory for select projects.
