Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, Vanessa moved to Los Angeles after falling in love with the world of voice over in 2015. In that time she has trained diligently under renowned vocalist and voice over artist Julissa Aguirre, learning the ins and outs of the voice over industry and recording her character and commercial reels. One of Vanessa’s favorite experiences has been working with Disney and Pixar producer Ned Lott during a day long voice over intensive that focused on ADR and character singing. She has since been in the studio recording with a number of well known brands such as Disney, Coca-Cola, LeapFrog, TikTok, and popular Youtube show, “ChuChu TV”, an educational children’s program with over 23 million subscribers.
With a degree in Vocal Performance from Sonoma State University, she has found the transition from melodic voice work to voice acting to be a perfect fit. Her additional studies with respected vocalists Wesla Whitfield, Ruth Ann Swenson, and Barbara Cook have aided her in developing an ear for detail and a knack for taking direction.
