Hey, there! I’m Havilland!

I am a voice actor, on-camera talent, and coach

As a dedicated voice acting coach, I transform the way my students approach the art and business of voice acting. My coaching philosophy emphasizes authenticity and self-confidence, helping students to embrace their true selves rather than trying to conform to perceived expectations. This shift not only eases nerves but also leads to more successful auditions and bookings. Through honest, constructive feedback and a supportive environment, I empower voice actors to feel comfortable and confident in their abilities. My personalized guidance has helped many students secure notable roles, including national commercials and other exciting opportunities!

My expertise in creative business coaching empowers artists, voice actors, and creative professionals to thrive in their industries. Drawing from my extensive background in both corporate settings and the creative arts, I provide tailored coaching that blends practical business strategies with creative insights. This unique approach ensures that my clients build a strong foundation of confidence to achieve sustainable success in their creative ventures. 

THE MISSION

To help you gain clarity, clients, and confidence!

About my journey…

After being laid off from a corporate position in Human Resources, I started on a journey that would introduce me to a wonderful new creative world! I went to broadcast school to start a second career. I studied radio and television, and while in school, I interned at a voiceover production studio and worked at a cable access station. I learned to edit, put spots together, shoot video, run a camera, write, and more! I went from there to work for an NBC affiliate as a producer, weekend anchor, and reporter. I honed my on-camera skills and got my first taste of emcee work there.

While honing my voice-acting skills, I knew I needed to learn how to run a business, not a hobby. So I dove into sales, marketing, and business training. I also started working more in front of the mic as an on-camera actor, hand model, and emcee.

The road from corporate to creative wasn’t always an easy one, and I discovered that by working to change my mindset, I would be able to build the kind of career I wanted - one that centered around using my creative abilities to make money and enjoy life the way I want to.

And in 2017, I started coaching freelancers and small business owners on how to grow their businesses. Since then, I have coached hundreds of freelancers from various creative backgrounds - including voice acting - providing them with the confidence and training they need to reach their creative goals. I’ve been fortunate enough to build a successful business doing what I love, and I’ll continue to help others do the same.

Years of experience as a voice actor & on camera talent

My favorite things

01.

I love coffee dates. But in reality, coffee tears my throat up, and as a voice actor, I have to be careful about drinking it… but who can resist pretty coffee drinks?

02.

I also really love Tiramisu! It’s my all-time favorite dessert. Yes, I’m fully aware it has ladyfingers soaked in espresso but don’t judge me, please. Just let me enjoy it, LOL.

03.

How can you not love a face like that? When I was anchoring one weekend, one of the reporters got a call about a man who owned a llama and was walking him in the park! I loved it!

04.

Bookstores = paradise. At least to me, they do. Someone recently said to me “People don’t read books anymore!” I thought, well, why are so many people in bookstores then? I love to read actual books! Reading is fundamental 😉
