About Me
An American narrator and writer, living and working in Tokyo, Japan
Hello! My name is Karen Haedrich.
Narration work is my passion. Growing up in Maine, I was inspired by the amazing voice actors that I heard in games, movies, and TV programs. Now, as an experienced and professional narrator, I have worked with a broad range of clients on various projects. Whatever your voice-over needs may be, I’m confident that I can provide the voice that you need to represent your brand.
Some project categories include:
・English educational programming
・Listening tests for schools
・Voiceovers for radio and TV
・Character voices for games and anime
・Museum audio guidance
・Bus/train line announcements
・Company promotional videos/In-house instructional videos
・Voiceovers for documentaries/educational videos
I majored in Creative Writing and minored in Japanese Language at Hamilton College in New York. I especially enjoy writing fiction and short stories. With my expertise, I can provide educational writing in English for all ages and levels. Please feel free to take a look at some of my published works below.
