Hi! I’m Tessa, and here’s a little bit of what I do:
Writer/Producer
I’m a writer and producer at Girl Tales Podcast. I produce the ‘Dear Potato’ series for Pinna. I also wrote for The Ten News and I mastered the audio for Wanderings Podcast.
Voiceover Artist
I voice commercials for companies like Kohl’s, Hendrick’s, Smirnoff, Etsy, SquareSpace, American Express, and more. I also do character work: I’m the voice of June the Moon in Casper Sleep Channel, and I performed the voice role of Lady Diana, Princess of Wales in TLC’s Diana: Tragedy or Treason. You can hear me as Maeve, guiding players through the game Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain. Here’s my VO reel.
Filmmaker
For the Home Alone Film Challenge, I created several shorts. Always Shoot Twice and West of the Shade both won Best Film & Best Directing. My personal favorite, A Slice of Revenge, did not win anything. As an actor, I appear in Ladies Room and Pasta.
Theater Maker
TENTACLES is my award-winning, critically-acclaimed one-act play about Tentacle Porn. Life in Plastic is my award-winning autobiographical solo show about Barbie. I have written and performed on Magnet Theater sketch teams, too.
And More…
I teach Public Speaking at BMCC and dream of building a small cottage somewhere, someday. I also like taking photographs, which you can see here. I even make linocut prints sometimes!
