Voice Over

Think you recognize Alecia’s speaking voice? You’re not the only one.

Responding to a flyer calling for three men and three women, Alecia auditioned for a radio commercial. "The flyer was posted in the music building at UT, so I thought they were looking for singers," Alecia explains. "When I called the number and learned it was a voice over audition, I thought, ‘why not?!’ I had nothing to lose. One week later, the PR director called me and said I had the job. Little did I know what the job was."

This was not just any voice over gig—Alecia was selected as the first and only National Female Voice for dot-com-phenom Collegestudent.com. For two years, every college-aged student in the nation heard about their "local, online campus community" thanks to Alecia. "I was unbelievably fortunate to work with Joel Block and Bill Harwell at The Production Block in Austin. They are first-class professionals in world-class facilities."

For every voice over spot, Alecia prepares by creating a specific character and then developing the voice that best suits that character. "I've had to read roles as a babysitter and as a thermostat. Those characters cannot sound the same. So I practice various deliveries, timbres, inflections and personalities for each one."

Known for her energized and quirky, college-cool delivery, as well as various languages and accents, Alecia has worked with major corporations like Time Warner Cable and Reebok, and her voice has been heard in commercials airing on MTV and VH1.  Most recently she recorded for a new Adobe advertising campaign.
