Hi, I’m Mary
I’m a voiceover performer, audiobook producer, and author ready to collaborate with producers and authors to bring stories to life. I train to learn new genres, get feedback, maintain vocal health, and create a great listening experience for my audience.
I live in So Cal wine country where I attend book clubs, attend a great local church, and relax at my favorite locals’ secret wineries. At Aspen Institute’s Food & Society program, I’m a senior program manager responsible for a live webinar series and social media content. I am also a multi published novelist. I got bit by the voiceover bug when, out of envy, I wanted to bring my novels into audio. I applied my video and film production background to produce the audio myself, and as a result, won an award. Ever since, word has spread around the campfire and independent authors and publishers such as Tule hired me to bring their series and single titles into audio!
An area I’m keen to expand is audio description. Three of my family members, one of whom taught me to read, are experiencing irreversible low vision. They love books, movies, and TV. Audiobooks (not just mine, of course!) and audio description services have given them back joy of story in all its forms. I can’t wait to step into this kind of service to the world.
When I’m not in my booth, I’m exploring hiking trails, fussing over my vegetable garden, cooking new and favorite recipes, or knitting. I’m about to become an empty nester (my son is a poolee preparing to enlist in the US Marine Corps–hoorah!) and excited for this new chapter to reignite my writing while expanding my voiceover practice!
I’m available to work with independent authors and publishers directly or through ACX & Ahab.

My voice style: American-English female voice, welcoming, warm, humorous, ironic, sincere, comforting, sophisticated, reassuring, natural, neighborly, compassionate, commanding, witty, loving, and dare I say, daring?
