    Steph is a fantastic, committed, and incredibly helpful voice actor and all round great person. She has helped me develop my skills and editing, as well as being a pal that is helping me get a leg up in this world. On top of all that her acting quality is top teir and any production is better off for having Steph on board!

  • @anthonyridad

    Steph is a very talented voice actress. She voiced the narrator of one of my podcasts and a few other characters within the as-of-yet unfinished series. Talented to a fault, she delivers lines on time and communication with her is always great. She even appreciates my incredible puns. I highly recommend this individual and her many talents.

  • @ussramshack

    Steph is a fun, friendly, eager, and easy to work with person! They work quickly, strive for quality, and were invested in delivering exactly what we wanted. Their voice is diverse, animatable, and professional, and they're an organized person that values the connections made from project to project. I got the VO I needed and spread my VA network all in one go!

  • @barkervo

    I worked with Steph on “Royal Duality,” a fantasy-genre visual novel developed by Hyakuten. Steph is a friendly, dedicated, and extremely kind person who genuinely values others’ insights and contributions to creative endeavors. She is always invested in her work and continual honing of her craft, organizing just-for-fun practice sessions with friends and continuously exploring and sharing new resources and opportunities. I feel extremely fortunate to have worked alongside her!

  • @sazzle04

    Steph is an incredibly talented voice actress who has provided her vocal talent for the main antagonist in our visual novel project. Steph is not only an excellent voice actor who performs with passion and flair, but she is also an invaluable member of the team, who is supportive of the project and participates with the whole cast wonderfully.

    Steph really strove to understand her character and delivered all of her lines on time and skillfully, she was receptive to the direction provided and engaged with the material proactively, helping us improve the script as we went along. Steph's commitment to providing a good performance was particularly impressive, listening and reflecting on her own audio and then providing additional takes, her care and attention to detail is outstanding.

    I would definitely recommend Steph for any project and I can't wait to work with her again in the future!
