Coaching Voiceover Clients That Succeed
Many of Gina’s youth coaching clients are also multi-hyphenate performing arts professionals! Several have appeared in Broadway shows including The Lion King, Merrily We Roll Along, and Once Upon A One More Time as well as City Center Encores’ production of Oliver, and the national tour of Peter Pan. Her children’s division also includes award winning, competitive dancers and high achieving singers and on-camera actors.

It is important for kids and teens in voiceover to be focused, professional, prepared, and open to direction.
