Courtney Lin

After one traumatic summer interning in a small rat lab, Courtney Lin decided that maybe the medical field was not the best route for her to go. She declared to her Taiwanese mother that she was dropping her initial plans for med school to make funny faces into cameras. From there, she transitioned into making funny noises into microphones. She then applied for and graduated from the on-camera acting program at UCLA, and since then has been able to meow, scream, giggle, and KYAH! her way into various projects. Don’t worry, her mom is fine now.

Courtney’s specialties in voiceover include animation, video games, toys, commercials, anime, ADR/looping, and VO career coaching. Animation credits include Monster High, The Casagrandes, Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

 In her time away from her tiny, padded box of foam (re: home office), Courtney enjoys cooking, teaching dance classes, and cuddling with her cats. She is also a co-founder of The School of Voiceover and co-host of Official_1UpTV on IG/YouTube.
