Georgette Perna’s Summary
Finalist for "Best New Voice" for 2008 Voicey Awards
Full-time commercial and animation voiceover professional in Los Angeles.
Currently co-starring in the animated series "Ring Force Five", anticipated to air on NBC during the 2008 Olympic Games. Also the voice of "Dagny" on a series in development entitled "Magellan's Magic Map", the commercial voice for Jellybean Friends (toys) (now airing on Cartoon Network, Discovery Kids, Toon Disney, Nicktoons, and PBS Kids), and providing character voices for Kidsland.tv and Kidsmania.
Formerly an Attorney Recruiting Consultant for Kass/Abell & Associates. Placed attorneys in Fortune 100 Corporations, and top-tier law firms across the country. Also a former practicing attorney.
From attorney, to attorney recruiter....to funny voices for cartoons. Obvious career changes, I know, but hey, I'm not one for taking chances ;)

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS:
"Georgette is exceptionally talented by offering a variety of voices for our show, she is also great to work with. She is quite honestly one of the most dedicated talents I have come across. She has a wide range of voices that have been used for a variety of productions. Aside from her voice talent, her zest for life is demonstrated in her mountain climbing, marathon running and pursuing adventures left and right. Georgette is truly well-rounded and her talent speaks for itself. "
