Laura Welsh

You are the ambassador of your brand. My job is to honor that brand in every way. I do this in two ways:

1) Emotive Performance: My voice acting comes from my love of storytelling & teaching. Connection with our audience is key; finding those bits and nuances that are so interesting or that are the game changers that I can get them excited about or helping them find that "Aha!" moment. That's how I connect your audience to you!

2) Professionalism (Reliability, Integrity, & Good Ole Fun): This means meeting your schedules, workflows, expectations, & quality standards WHILE being easy and fun to work with. So much goes into making your project a success. I realize that I'm one member of a bigger team, one piece of the puzzle. The last thing you need is to be chasing down your voice talent. I deliver on time and work collaboratively with you, your team, and your clients so you can rest easy knowing your deadlines and quality standards are being met. I also bring my positivity, flexibility, communication skills & repertoire of movie quotes to keep things lighthearted and fun!

A little about me:
Laura is a North American voice actor who focuses on commercials and corporate narration as well as explainer, instructional & eLearning videos. She also has experience in documentary narration. Her expressive, alto voice can be informative and matter of fact, conversational and laid back, witty and sarcastic, mysterious and sultry, or warm and friendly. GenX, Millenial, GenZ, yes!

As I mentioned, when I am interested in something, I don't just learn about it, I immerse myself in it. This has given me a one-of-a-kind resume including:
25+ years (and counting) in the IT, Cybersecurity, and National Defense industries as both an engineer and a program manager
15+ years in the animal care & management industry as a volunteer zookeeper aide at an AZA accredited zoo & equine therapy program volunteer; I LITERALLY cared for, studied, and trained lions, tigers and other exotic species
10+ years (and counting)as an instructor including training individuals and classes on IT systems, teaching first aid & CPR with the American Red Cross and teaching horse management with a US Pony Club Center
3+ years (and counting) as a small business owner of a pet accessory shop
Degrees in computer science, electrical engineering, & psychology; PMP certified

What makes Laura different? To every job, I bring:
My engineering mindset and rigor. This means meticulous attention to detail from emotive reads, to clean recordings, exact adherence to your technical specs and file separation & naming, and simple, streamlined invoicing and closeout
My relentless drive, perseverance, flexibility, & positive attitude to deliver and exceed expectations. No matter how high the stakes and the pressure are. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
My team-building ability, collaborative energy & sense of humor that brings the group together, keeps projects moving forward, and makes the team laugh, even in the toughest situations
