About
Alan is a British voiceover artist, presenter, and actor based in the USA. He genuinely believes he has the best job in the world because whether he’s behind the mic or in front of a camera, he gets to act for a living and that brings him endless joy.
Alan regularly works with clients around the world including; Ford, Starbucks, Krispy Kreme, Crunchyroll and Weetabix to name a few. His goal is simple: bring each project to life in the smoothest and clearest way possible. To him, excellent voiceover isn’t just about reading a script efficiently (though that does matter). It instead comes from imagination, reaching deep, connecting with the message, and telling a story that feels real. Imagination fuels everything Alan does, whether he’s recording voiceover or performing on screen. It allows him to bring honesty and energy to every situation no matter how serious, wild, or unusual it may be.
Then there’s storytelling. Storytelling brings engagement, excitement, joy, and fun. The question is always: What message does the client want delivered? That’s the story Alan tells. When done right, it creates work that is clear, concise, and emotionally meaningful and sometimes even spiritually or psychologically resonant to. Working across Anime, Video Games, Animation, Commercial, and Narration Alan knows what he is doing when it comes to telling the story.
With over 20 years in the industry, Alan has worked across film and TV sets, presented on camera, performed in performance capture, and voiced projects across multiple genres for clients in countries all around the world. All these skills connect back to one simple truth: it’s all acting.
To close, lets finish with the man behind the mic - Alan's number one job is being a good husband and dad; everything else comes from that. He holds tight to his values, knowing they reflect traits like dedication, commitment, punctuality, and character. Alan also has an unhealthy obsession with ice cream, loves a good comedy, and enjoys long walks with his family. He’s deeply passionate about his faith, hosts his own faith-based entertainment podcast, and cares strongly about his local community.
