I'm all about positivity and having fun doing something I am passionate about with likeminded people. LGBTQ+ and fantasy projects are my jam.

    Jenna was a joy to act beside in our last project together, and I am ecstatic to be working with her again. Her sense of humor is spot on and her presence absolutely elevated what I was able to bring to the table in my performance. I hope to work with her many more times.

  • @amandathompson

    I attended online classes with Jenna. She is very nice! She help me improve my voice acting and even told me about this website. She encourages me and always does such great work in voice acting. Lots of emotion behind her voice! Recommend!

    Jenna puts a lot of passion into everything they do. They are always so sweet and positive. It's a breath of fresh air in this competitive industry. They are an incredible actress and an asset to any project.

    Jenna was a wonderful person to work with. She had fantastic communication skills as well as providing more than enough material to work with. She was able to take directorial notes and bring a new product to the table in a very quick turn around time. Her overall connection to the project was sincere and she showed a great love for what she does. It was a pure pleasure to work with her!

  • @faxjam

    Jenna was great to work with, brilliant communication and completion of the voice work for the project despite a very tight time frame for the delivery of voices needed. They put a tonne of personality and energy into the role for my animation and the technical aspect of their recording made it sound very crisp, clear and professional.

    Really has benefited my animation project, will definitely request their VO talents again for future roles!

  • @maxthatacts

    There is so much I could say about Jenna, but that would keep us here all day. So, why don't I point out the obvious? Jenna is an exceptional addition to any cast, as I've seen in the various projects we've done together; always supportive of her fellow cast, helpful whenever they can be, and truly talented when it comes to the voice work they provide. If you're looking for a ray of sunlight, backed up by oodles of talent - look no further than Jenna Oliver.

Not only is Jenna a tremendously versatile voice talent, but incredibly hard working and upbeat. The love of the craft really shines through! Jenna was a real pleasure to with.
