“I’m originally from Donegal, in the northwest of Ireland. When I met my husband, I found myself living in the United States with no direction in life. It was just a few days before my 30th birthday, living in California, when I decided to get into voiceover. ‘Doing voices’ has always been a part of me. No one in our family can tell a story without impersonating someone! Little did I know, this would lead me to becoming a union voiceover actor. I’m so happy and proud to be in SAG-AFTRA. My father was a member of the Teamsters Union during his time in New York in the 50s, so I’m extremely honoured to be able to carry the union torch in our family, and in the country my Dad loved so much. Finding acting has given me purpose. It has led me to meet amazing, talented and supportive people. I am so grateful. Thank you!” Happy #MemberMonday , @deekayvoices !
