So... first time in the booth (alone). What was it like?
I've only done work in the booth alone, and the first time I was absolutely heartbroken to hear how ugly my voice sounded. XD I think we all have to just get used to it eventually.
Do you think an actual anime programming block (not counting Toonami since it's an action block, not an anime block) may work in America (i.e. using MNet America airing Love Live! as a basis of example)? Why or why not?
Honestly, if voiceover has taught me anything it's that I'm as dumb as a bag of apples and shouldn't answer the smart people questions. XD
I have no idea how well an anime block would do, but if they made one I would be pretty ecstatic!

do you have an older brother? if so, you got any suggestions on how to get bros to back off, when they put you in a headlock?
I do NOT, but why on earth would you want them to back off? The proper response is to let someone hurt you and then plan an extravagant revenge. Stay up late at night brooding, plotting, and then, when he least expects it, STRIKE. STRIKE WITH THE WRATH OF A THOUSAND PEOPLE WHO GOT THE WRONG ORDER AT STABUCKS.
Then, as he pales and stammers out "w-why?", you thank him for the headlock. You thank him for teaching you the joys of hating, the glory of spending your every waking minute deciding the fate of those that have wronged you. And then you say, "and today was just the beginning."
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA
Or I dunno, you could tell him that it really hurts you and explain yo your parents that they need to get him to stop being so physically confrontational.

which new anime would you like to be part of and what character would you like to voice as if they made it into a dubbed
Honestly, I just want to work. XD If I got too caught up in who I WANT to play, then I may be limiting my abilities when I'm cast as someone who I didn't consider. I just kind of want to be a blank slate in terms of character preference, so nowadays I mainly watch finished dubbed products instead of staying current.
Also, any anime character is much cooler than myself, so even when it's bits or walla, I get to be someone better for 15 minutes. So I'm just happy to be cast at all.

Noticed your new to Sentai Filmworks and how many anime roles have you been casted in so far that you can discuss? Just curious
I've been working with Sentai about 3 years, so not a TON of roles, about 25 including bits and walla, and only a few principle/supporting.

What role do you feel has been the furthest from "you"? (any medium)
Probably Shiori Asagiri from Tamako Market. She's far too kind and soft-spoken, and I hate everything and let the world know. xD
Favourite YouTube channel whenever you have some time to kill?
Cooking with Dog. <3
Do you have a favorite Anime? (in or not in)
I have way too many. For in, I fell so much in love with Beyond the Boundary it isn't funny. I love Muv-Luv, but I feel like I'm missing out on so much without playing the visual novels, so I'm waiting to play through them before I can call myself a Muv-luv fan.
Some others I love are Kaiba, Gankutsuo, Devil Survivor 2, Higurashi, Elfen Lied, and Kaiji.

Any advice on creating a character voice demo when you haven't yet been cast in anything? What are directors looking for? Should you make up characters in a variety of situations and vocal ranges?
Before I answer, let me preface:
1. I am ONE actor, and a newbie at voiceover at that. If an actor with more experience in creating demos gives you contradicting advice, listen to them.
2. I am not a director, and have never had say in any casting decision ever, so if a director gives you advice that contradicts mine, listen to them.
3. I have the IQ of a bucket of apples. If my advice doesn't make sense don't get mad, chances are it's because I'm a moron.
So, the first thing I would say is stay away from doing lines directly from anime unless you're using it as an example of official work. At least, don't make it your only source of lines? Directors want actors, and if you show an interest solely in anime, it begs the question whether you want to act, or whether you just want to have a big deal made out of you at anime conventions. That in turn leads to a question of reliability, because if you only want to be a con guest, will you flake out on the second half of a show in a few years when you're frustrated because the invites aren't flooding in? Short bits of monologues may work, and if you go the original route, you can hire someone to write lines and put together a demo that will work with your strengths.
Length: A minute to a minute and a half. If you have a 5 minute demo chances are they'll look at the first minute of it or skip around. You deserve to have your demo heard in its entirety, so choose only your best minute.
Sound: A demo on a laptop mic sounds unprofessional. By renting a studio and paying for a professional demo, it shows that you are willing to make an investment in your art, which shows tenacity. It also shows that you appreciate how amazing and one-of-a-kind audio engineers are, because they are unicorns. If you think that fiddling with adobe audition for a few minutes makes you as capable as a good engineer, you are so dang wrong. And hey, the demo also sounds better that way.
Honestly, there are people who make a living creating anazing demo reels for actors. I 100% reccomend utilizing their expertise over doing one yourself, because you'll get a better product and it feels good to know that you're supporting another artistic audio industry.

What led to your breaking into the voice over business?
An actress had went into labor and they needed someone quick! It's usually not super common to be heard by several directors in such a short time span, so I consider it the craziest coincidence ever. After that I was somehow let back in the booth.
