Hello, My name is Sonserae Leese and I have spent the last 20+ years working as an artist in visual effects in animation, film and television for studios such as Walt Disney, Nickelodeon and Sony Pictures. I have also been doing voiceover work for the projects that I have been involved in on a professional level since the early 90s.
When I was in college, I interned at a local radio station where I did voiceover radio commercials. I have sung professionally and taken over 10 years of private vocal training for singing as well as had many years experience in musical theater and acting.
Ten years ago, I had professional voiceover classes in Hollywood by the legendary voiceover talent, Delores Diehl.
I currently write/produce and narrate a podcast and I also narrate children's books and audiobooks using many character voices I have developed over the years. I have a number of styles of voices I use as well as singing styles to fit the project.
I'm an active voting member of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (Emmy Academy) Animation Peer Group. I'm also a member of T.A.G. The Animation Group IATSE Local 836
