Michelene is an accomplished South African voice artist.
She started her professional career at the age of six when she dubbed the voice of a squirrel in an episode of a Dutch children’s TV series, Nils Holgerson. Originally hailing from South Africa, Michelene has studied and worked in London for over 22 years and with the help of elocution lessons, she has a neutral English accent.
Although English is her mother tongue, she can read Afrikaans fluently. Michelene’s natural voice is mature—in her 30s to 40s.

Michelene has an array of experiences as a voice actor, from “Marmaduke’s” doggy girlfriend in a promo video, pretending to be “Margot – a Southern Bell” in an Audio Drama, a wicked spider at Halloween or a ten-year-old “posh” girl in Ant Middleton’s audiobook, “Cold Justice”.
She has recorded radio and TV commercials (for America, the UK, and South Africa) and portrayed various characters in radio dramas. Michelene also has experience dubbing, voicing documentaries, narrating audiobooks, corporate videos and podcasts, live presenting, E-learning, and IVR.
Recently, she portrayed the well-to-do 20-year-old Diana Vernon in a Podcast Period Drama. In the audiobook, “Moederland” she used her neutral accent, including British and South African tones when the characters called for it. Michelene’s specialism is her years of experience and the versatility and adaptability she brings to every project to get the best results for her clients.
