Meet Laila Berzins: The Voice‑Over Chameleon
Born on October 4, 1983 in West Hartford, Connecticut, Laila Beth Berzins is an American voice actress and performer who has made waves in anime, animation, video games, and indie productions. After graduating with a BA in Communications and honing skills in theater, improv, and music, she set her sights on Los Angeles—and hasn’t looked back since.
From Connecticut Kid to LA Voice Star
Laila grew up with a love for performance—just ask anyone who’s seen her turn everyday characters into comedic scenes. Inspired early on by voices like Robin Williams, she combined her comedic chops with a solid academic foundation, launching into voice-over work about a decade ago. Based in L.A., she’s been Union-eligible, represented by agencies like Atlas Talent and GoVoices, and deeply connected to the VO community.
A True Vocal Chameleon
Shooting from quirky accents to heart-thumping dramatic tones, Laila’s range is impressive. According to her own site, she covers everything from explainer videos and eLearning narration to character-heavy roles in animation, commercials, political spots, jingles, and even singing. She highlights her strengths in:
- Commercials – authentic, conversational, relatable
- Corporate narration – clear, confident, trustworthy
- Animation – from witty teens to deep cinematic voices
- Video games – games demand personality and range (like shouting “Xiao, POWER!”?)
