About
I'm Kelsey Painter, also known as The VO Opossum. Why an Opossum? Because just like opossums: I'm one of a kind (Opossums are America’s only marsupial!), an out-of-left-field funky weirdo, and extremely beneficial to the ecosystem (aka your project).

I’m a classically trained actor who cut my teeth in the world of professional theatre. I have a wonderfully weird, bouncy voice that inspires and delights my collaborators.

With a deep well of expression to draw on, I specialize in character work and I’ve worked extensively in animation, gaming, and audio drama. I’m also a go-to talent for commercials that call for joy, levity, and a sparkly edge.

My university education and early professional background is in classical and contemporary theatre, through which I developed expert script analysis skills and explored a wide spread of different acting techniques and approaches.

p.s. not to worry, I can be normal upon request 😝
