Hi there, Andrea Aal here. (Andrea, like mitochondria, and Aal, like "That’s All Folks!") I’m a professional actor and voiceover artist with a passion for bringing stories to life. My storytelling chops were honed through years of acting in sitcoms, soap operas, and commercials. After a detour as National Director of Consumer Advertising at The Hollywood Reporter—where I mingled with luxury brands and stayed connected to the industry without the hassle of being nominated for awards—I returned to my true calling: storytelling. Whether it’s witty, tongue-in-cheek dialogue or heartfelt introspection, I love narrating stories that resonate. My favorite genres? Nonfiction gems in the self-help, memoir, and spirituality spaces—where my years of therapy, personal growth, and lifelong curiosity allow me to connect deeply with the material. Now with 14 years of sobriety, I bring empathy, authenticity, and a voice of experience to transformative narratives. But fiction lovers, don’t despair—I also adore romantic comedies (especially “second-chance” romance) and tales featuring strong, independent, feisty female leads who remind me of Scarlett O’Hara or Anne Boleyn. Armed with a UCLA degree in Theatre Arts and minors in French and Spanish, I have a flair for accents—British, Southern, French, Spanish, Russian, and even Yiddish (a skill leftover from hearing my grandparents speak when they didn’t want the kids to know who or what they were discussing!) When I’m not narrating, you’ll find me walking my adorable schnauzer-husky mix, Gemma (who thinks she’s the real star of the family) or ordering off-menu with my husband, who always warns the waitstaff, “For my wife, the menu is just a suggestion.” Oh and…“I’ll have her gluten.” Life is perfectly imperfect, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. That’s “Aal” for now…
