@sorapenfoldvaExecutive-Level Creative & Dynamic Voice Actor. Head Writer for Aether Arts Studio (creators of the American's Wild Journey). Highly versatile character actor with dynamic emotional range, backed by a decade of theatrical discipline.
Voice Actor | Character Performer | Storyteller
I’m a voice actor and character performer who loves bringing stories, worlds, and characters to life. With over a decade of theatrical training, I’ve developed a versatile approach to performance that allows me to dive into everything from energetic protagonists and playful characters to emotionally complex and layered roles.
My voice is dynamic, expressive, warm, and adaptable, with a particular love for video games, fantasy, animation, anime, and action-driven stories. I enjoy finding the heart of a character and figuring out what makes them tick, not just how they sound, but who they are. Whether I’m playing a bright and energetic hero, a goofy troublemaker, or a character carrying something much heavier beneath the surface, I strive to make every performance feel genuine and memorable.
Professional ApproachI bring a collaborative and dedicated attitude to every project. I’m comfortable taking direction, experimenting with different interpretations, and communicating clearly throughout the production process. My goal is always to make the creative process enjoyable while delivering performances and files that meet professional expectations and deadlines.
I record from a professionally treated home studio with a RØDE NT1 microphone and Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 interface, allowing me to provide clean, high-quality audio for professional projects.
At the end of the day, I’m here because I love storytelling. Give me a character, a world, and a story to tell, and I’ll give them everything I’ve got.

Rates & Collaboration
I believe in keeping my rates fair, professional, and in line with industry standards, including the Global Rate Guide (GRG) for commercial, video game, and animation work.
My goal with every project is to provide a strong, professional performance while being easy to work with, receptive to direction, and genuinely invested in the story and characters I’m helping bring to life.
I also have a soft spot for indie creators and passion projects. I know that smaller projects don’t always have the same budgets as larger productions, so if your budget is limited but your project speaks to me, especially when it involves fantasy, authentic representation, meaningful characters, or emotionally rich storytelling, please feel free to reach out and tell me what you’re working with.
I’m always happy to have a conversation and see if we can find something that works for both of us. At the end of the day, I love getting to be part of someone’s creative world and helping bring their story to life.
Roles & Casting Interests
I’m drawn to character-driven roles in video games, animation, anime, fantasy, and sci-fi, especially projects that have a strong story and characters I can really sink my teeth into.
I love playing emotionally rich protagonists, energetic action leads, spirited sidekicks, younger characters, and complex dramatic roles. My theatrical background has given me a strong foundation in character work, while my experience as a writer has helped me understand the importance of story, motivation, and emotional beats. I also enjoy the challenge of playing multiple distinct characters within the same project and making sure each one has their own voice, personality, and presence.
I’m especially excited to work with passionate, organized, and collaborative production teams who care about their stories and the people bringing them to life. I love projects with meaningful themes, imaginative worldbuilding, diverse characters, and stories that leave an impact.
I record from a professionally treated home studio using a RØDE NT1 microphone and Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 interface, providing clean, professional-quality audio for your project.
Most importantly, I want to create characters that people can feel something for. Whether that means making someone laugh, cheer, cry, or see a little bit of themselves in a character, that’s what makes voice acting so meaningful to me—and I’d love to help bring your world to life.

Sora voiced Sabrina, one of the leads in my audio drama, "Lessons Learned." I can't believe Sora is a new voice actor and this was her first lead because she was AMAZING! She captured Sabrina's intelligence, kindness, compassion, and fear perfectly. The emotional scenes almost made me cry. I can't thank Sora enough for her hard work as Sabrina. I hope she gets more voice roles in the future; she deserves it!
