Meet Your Sirens!
Sarah is a Texas-based American voice actress who started her voiceover career in 2018. Yenni Ann is a Florida-based, bilingual Cuban-American voice actress who also began her voice acting career in 2018.
So, how did they meet?
Thanks to a voiceover conference in 2019, rooming together for the conference, and sharing a bottle of wine every night, it became clear the two would become the best of friends. Coming from completely different backgrounds but sharing the same goals and dreams, Sarah & Yenni always knew they wanted to make something together.
In 2022, an idea was sparked.
In 2023, the planning began.
And in 2024, it all came to life.
Join them as they venture through different myths and legends from around the world, giving their unfiltered and hilarious comments in between, learning about how these stories came into being and searching for the truth at the core of the tale.
