Danielle Harris is a voice actor from Atlanta, Ga. Originally born and raised in Indiana, she has had an interest and intrigue with voiceover since her early teenage years. It wasn't until she was in her early twenties that she sought out to attempt to get voice acting training around 2012, then again in 2018, both times unfortunately being sidetracked by life and her work in government. Danielle worked as a 911 dispatcher, radio operator for 8 years then was promoted to  Supervisor and Training coordinator over Emergency Communications for the last 5 years before she ultimately made up her mind to end her 13 year career to pursue her passion in voiceover full time. She has since worked with brand names such as Canva, Microsoft, Walmart, Sonos, Michelob Ultra, Dollar General and more.
 
In between vo life and work, she spends all her time with her 2 year old daughter Arrow, husband Adam and their dog Knuckles and cat Loki.

Brad Hyland was born on April 1 st , 2016. 
Well, not really- but that’s what he’ll say is when he really started living!
That’s the day he started full-time as a voice actor… after quitting a first career that
spanned 35 years.
His first formal VO training actually started nearly thirty years ago...working hard on all
aspects of business with one-on-one coaching and master classes.
 
He spent two decades dabbling in standup comedy and movie extra work, as well as
honing his pipes as front man for a rock & blues band for eight years.  That love of
performing is now satisfied daily as an actively booking voiceover talent, coach and
mentor.
 
Brad works from his home studio near Washington DC, serving customers all over the
world. He can tackle just about any assignment with his versatile voice and ability to
take direction. Some of his favorite work includes being the voice of Santa for the Elf on
the Shelf, Narrating films for Crazy Horse Monument and Craters Of The Moon national
parks, and booking multiple character voices for video games.
The core of his business however, is commercial, corporate & film narration, as well as
explainers and voice messaging of all kinds.
He is a multiple OneVoice award winner and a 2021 SOVAS nominee for Best Best TV
narration. 
He loves keeping in touch with the voiceover community and has begun to share his
expertise by mentoring and coaching others in the industry with his tips for auditioning,
booking and connecting.

This episode is filled with resources for you to move your career forward.  I provide an update on how 2021 was in my VO world, and discuss having a growth mindset rather than a fixed mindset as we move into 2022.  I also talk about the importance of creating a team around yourself to help elevate you to the next level, understanding the system your operating in (voice-over, social media, casting sites, tech) and making the most of the people and courses that will help shorten your learning curve.
