The Human Behind the Voice

Thanks for being curious about who I am.

I could tell you about how I’m an established voice actor but if you’ve seen my work, you already have an inkling of that. I could also tell you about the path that took me from teaching, to corporate, to the recording booth…

But I believe what matters right now is who I am today —
the person you're thinking about collaborating with.

So I built this About page a little differently.
Think of it as one of those old-school “what’s behind the flap” books or a "choose your own adventure".

Follow what pulls you in. Skip what doesn’t.
However you move through it, I’m glad you’re here.

I’m surrounded by kids, close to my mother (nod to my pop who has passed), show up for the older generations and am tight with my peers.

I take it all seriously.

Regardless of age, I treat people with the same level of respect. I want them to feel heard because it’s an honor to hear their stories.

Where I stand in that multi-generational perspective has shown me what matters to people and how to say things in a way that feels real to them, regardless of age.

My dad gave everyone nicknames.
My sister was Pooh. My brother was Eater (short for Pumpkin Eater).
Mine? Pants.

It all started with his nostalgia for the knickerbocker pants he wore growing up.
(If you’ve got a quizzical look on your face, refer to Exhibit A over on the right.)

“Nikki” turned into “Knickerbocker.”
“Knickerbocker” turned into “Knicker Pants.”
“Knicker Pants” turned into “Nickers.”
And eventually, he dropped any resemblance to my actual name and it was streamlined to “Pants.”

When someone yells “Pants!” and I answer “Yeah?" it makes perfect sense in my world.

Now if someone was called “Shoe"?
we’d need to talk.

So that’s me.

☆ A woman.
☆ A mom.
☆ A friend.
☆ A community builder.
☆ A believer in purpose.

And a human who just happens to make a living behind a microphone.
