By day, narrator Andy Chen works as a Fire and Life Safety Officer with the State of California. Fire prevention approval for public school construction projects fills his day with building plans, code books, and marking up drawings.
His interest in audio narration began with reading bedtime stories to his son and has blossomed into a full-blown philosophy of what makes a compelling story narration. Namely, to guide the flow and pace of the author's work and not distract the listener with "acting". He finds narrating a mentally challenging activity, followed by endless hours of editing, which he finds oddly relaxing. Perhaps because it's similar to his day job, where he’s paid to find mistakes with a red Sharpie.
Andy currently lives in San Francisco, and his contact info and demo can be found at VoiceOfAndy.com
