We all know VO is tough. Imagine balancing VoiceOver AND a busy college schedule at the same time! At 19 years of age, Jet Walker is among today’s busiest and hardest-working voice actors. We’re lucky to have her on this episode of The Making Wavs VO Podcast.
With parents that work in VoiceOver and Film/TV production, Jet understands the hard work this career demands. So much so that she started VO training at AGE 9! Ten years later she’s thriving as both a voice actor and college student.
