MariSkyVA, otherwise known as Mari, is a 22 year-old Korean-American Youtube voice actor from the Chicago area. Taking experience from a couple theater classes that she took in high school, she began voice acting back in 2016, voicing various characters for smaller projects such as LEGO animations and comic dubs with only the recording app on her cell phone as her microphone.
Recently, Mari has picked up the hobby once again, turning it into an opportunity to meet and collaborate with other voice actors, and is even collaborating with famous YouTube voice actors such as Rarzrevenge and Philsterman10.
Mari now voices a variety of different characters for various projects, one of her favorites being Ilya Mao from Beyblade Burst DB. She has also become known for her ability to voice younger male characters.
Mari is very excited and honored to have the opportunity to receive voiceover coaching and training from one of her best friends and fellow voice actor Sean Dickey (aka Sean M.D). Sean is best known for being one of the 3 winners in the “Now Voice This 8” voice competition in July 2021. Mari had met Sean in December 2021 while searching for someone to voice a character for one of her projects, and they have been friends ever since. Sean not only provided her with live direction for various roles that she has been cast for, but he also aided her in writing a script and provided her with live coaching and direction for her first official character demo reel.
Outside of voice acting, Mari is currently in pursuit of a nursing degree, and is taking college courses while also working very hard to balance working full-time and voiceover at the same time.
