"We auditioned several voice talents over a fairly long period of time and finally struck gold when we found Rosi.
From the start, it was obvious that she was head and shoulders above the rest. She is completely confident in her skin, and this confidence combined with just the right amount of warmth and friendliness came across superbly in her voice. On top of all that, she is also very coachable and able to follow direction effortlessly. We are so glad we found her!"
-Derick Fajardo, Director of International Product Development

Because I am a professional entertainer used to microphones and cameras, voice-over work comes quite naturally to me. I am efficient, professional and quite enthusiastic about this work because I truly enjoy it.
Over the years I have discovered I can speak very quickly without stumbling and get jobs done promptly, or I can slow down to accommodate the needs of young learners. I have often found that scripts in Spanish tend to take longer to read than those originally recorded in English; the need has often emerged for me to help the project manager reduce text so as to fit in the designated space of time. Because I am a native Spanish speaker I am able to do this easily. I also often catch errors in translations made by script translators and am happy to make corrections on the spot or make recommendations for corrections for the clients' consideration, as requested.
I have also had acting experience and am able to read dramatically quite comfortably. I'm also easy to direct and fun to work with, and find that a good sense of humor goes a long way towards making clients feel happy when project is challenging. I am a dedicated team player and a creative problem-solver.
Ever since my childhood my parents always encouraged me to be a good communicator in both Spanish and English. Little did I know just how much I would appreciate the love they passed on for both speaking and singing bilingually. My love for communication is at the heart of my work and I'm honored to be able to put my skills at the service of my voice-over clients.

Cogent Communications
"Rosi did a marvelous job and everyone is very happy with the professional results. Most importantly, the patients are using the programs and have commented on how positive the message is in the podcasts. In no small way Rosi was partly responsible for this. The patients needed to believe who was leading them through the process and Rosi accomplished this like the pro that she is."

"I hired Rosi for a VO for a Spanish Radio campaign. She not only did a great job with the read, but she provided us with help on the translations and editing during the session. She's great, and we'll be hiring her for the Television next! I highly recommend Rosi."

Habanero, Inc. (Media Production)
"Rosi is very talented, professional and clearly dedicated to her craft. In both one to one conversation as well as during the recording session with multiple clients on the phone, she was very friendly, accommodating of client preferences and direction and receptive to critique. The recording session took approximately 20 minutes to complete -- but could have easily taken twice as long with a lesser talent. Rosi honed in on the main idea and tone needed for the piece and knocked it out quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Rosi Amador and are pleased to recommend her."

Curt Norris Media
"I had the pleasure of working with Rosi on a recent corporate e-learning project. The voice actors were a key component in bringing the coursework to life. Rosi had the challenging task of blending just the right amount of accent into her English dialog and did so beautifully, perfectly capturing the personality of the character. She clearly enjoys what she does and cares deeply about the quality of her work and the finished product. Rosi was excellent about staying in touch throughout the production cycle and delivered exactly what was promised on schedule. I would happily recommend Rosi for her quality work, friendly helpful attitude and flawless professionalism."

"We chose Rosi to record our National Geographic Spanish program for primary school children. Because of her multi- cultural background, she uses a standard Spanish that would be appropriate for almost any project. She was cooperative, friendly, and expressive. Most importantly, her voice is warm and rich, and she was able to provide just the kind of energy and expression that we wanted. She did a wonderful job for us!"
