Logan Lay VO

I have a long history of game mastering / dungeon mastering for Tabletop Role Playing Games, where I play with accents and voices all the time. I was dedicated to theatre throughout high school, which helped develop my skills in improve acting and performance in general. I have also been on a podcast since 2020 that creates actual-play presentations of Tabletop RPGs as well as talk shows around the TTRPG community and related topics. As a note, linguistics is a hobby for me, and proper pronunciation is a passion, regardless of language.
