She speaks French, has great facility with accents (specifically regional UK accents) as she's lived in Paris, London, and New York, and is constantly working on mastering new dialects. Her narration style is conversational, intimate, and warm and she’s been the recipient of an Audie and three Earphones Awards. She's been an avid reader since her childhood, so to get to marry her two loves of performing and reading in narration is a dream!
