Rowan Hand

My accent is an educated “flat Midwestern” (think American RP), but I am originally from Kansas and comfortable with this and other regional accents.

My voiceover work has thus far involved primarily podcasts and educational materials for Vocable, the Paris-based English pedagogy magazine; educational materials for Hachette publications in both English and French (anglophone accent); educational videos and audiobooks for Your GMAT Coach; and narration of videos about math subjects and screenwriting for Thought Experience Limited. I also have experience as an on-air personality/DJ for WFRD radio in New Hampshire.

Since 2018, I have trained with Method Acting London. With acting in mind, I am interested in opportunities to continue my work in Commercial and Narration and to bridge into Voice Acting and Gaming.

As I have nearly 20 years' experience doing live tutoring for groups and one-to-one, my voice and delivery for educational materials is reliably calm and authoritative.
