Bio:

“Girl Power”. “Inspiration embodied”. “Cinematic”. Welcome to Lili’s world.

Her deep, textured, cinematic voice has the grit, and gravitas to inspire, and the perfect balance of warmth and empathy to reassure. She’s got the torque and authority you need for your manifesto and the conversational, friendly, down-to-earth vibes for your commercial “spokesperson” spots. Best of all, she doesn’t sound like anyone, and no one sounds quite like her.

As a skilled female voice over actress, Lili approaches scripts with a unique, distinctive flair, and infuses them with intent and conviction. The end goal is always the same: to make the words sound genuine, natural and authentic, and to captivate your target audience.

Lili’s VO expertise
Lili primarily records commercials and manifestos, but no matter the message or the medium, her conversational and unpolished style make her a slam dunk for brands who aspire to stay current and engaging.

She’s also a voice over Ninja! With a black belt in two languages, she speaks North American English and French Canadian flawlessly, without an accent. She is absolutely and perfectly bilingual.

Her proficiency in languages makes her a master at handling scientific, medical and technical scripts and can infuse even the most complex script with flow, emotion, gravitas, and good vibes. If you’ve got something important, personal, and maybe even complicated to say, she’s your girl.

A film & TV actress first
As a film & TV actress, Lili’s career is multi-faceted. She’s appeared in Grey’s Anatomy and in Alien vs Predator. She’s also been a voice over actor in the Assassin’s Creed video game franchise. Most notably, she was the female announcer at the Opening and Closing ceremonies of the 2010 Winter Olympic games. These days, she primarily records television commercials, and manifestos. Watch her hard at work recording on YouTube.

Recording capabilities
Lili records and edits voiceovers from her professional home studio (iso-booth) equipped with Source-Connect Standard (4.0). She works with a Neumann U-87 and records broadcast-quality recordings every day. Clients who don’t use Source-Connect can expect to receive high quality production-ready wav files. *Additional studio fees may apply. Listen to her voice over demos right now, and email her find out about her availabilities.

Lili has a profound passion for her craft and views all the scripts she voices as high art. She loves breathing life into even the most challenging scripts and looks forward to recording voice overs every day!

📌 Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does it mean to hire New York voice over talent?

Answer: It means working with a voice actor based in or around New York who brings real local energy to your project. After all, many have backgrounds in theater, broadcast, or commercial production that adds depth to their delivery.

2. Why hire a New York voice actor instead of someone elsewhere?

Answer: Because New York is one of the most influential media markets in the world, talent here often brings a distinct edge, sharp timing, and real world experience. As a result, productions that need an authentic NYC feel are best served by local voices.

3. How much does it cost?

Answer: Pricing depends on script length, usage rights, project type, and turnaround time. So, smaller projects with limited usage tend to be more affordable, while broader campaigns cost more.

4. What should I consider when hiring New York voice talent?

Answer: Listen to demos that match your project, whether that’s commercial, narration, or animation. Since many have stage and screen backgrounds, they can often shift tone and style with ease.

5. Does this kind of project require a contract?

Answer: Yes, a simple agreement covering usage rights, payment, and revisions is recommended. This way, both you and the voice actor have clear expectations from the start.

6. What file formats are typically delivered?

Answer: Most deliver WAV or MP3 files. However, you can request other formats, like AIFF, if your project needs them.

7. What information should I provide when hiring?

Answer: Share your script, target audience, preferred tone, file specs, and your deadline. In turn, clear direction leads to a stronger first take and fewer revisions.

8. What’s the benefit of hiring local New York talent vs. remote voice actors elsewhere?

Answer: Local talent can sometimes offer in-person, live directed sessions, which is useful for bigger productions. That said, remote voice actors, including many based in New York, deliver studio quality recordings from home, so distance rarely limits quality.

9. Should I hire directly or work with an agency?

Answer: Hiring directly is often more cost effective and gives you more control over communication. On the other hand, agencies can help with larger or more complex casting needs.
