HEY THERE, I'M EMILY!

The voice & heart behind Fablehound

After finishing grad school & hustling on the tour/summer theater circuit, I knew I wanted to use my creative skills in a way that better suited the life I wanted to live. I didn’t want to be at the mercy of other folks. I wanted a life marked by elbow room. Travel! Adventure! Freedom!

Enter voiceover work. I weaseled my way into an audition, quickly started booking, & before I knew it I was working as an audio engineer & hustling VO full time.

Fablehound, founded in 2020, is the culmination of all my skill, determination, & outright pluckiness. From its humble beginnings in a Chicago closet, Fablehound has grown into a booming creative enterprise, complete with two fully-equipped studios, countless commercial campaigns, & an ever-growing client base.

My Values

    Unmatched Customer Service

    I’m nothing if not a communicator, & every client who books with me has an inside lane to my best efforts in this regard. Whether we’re talking response time, understanding a project, navigating schedules, or anything else that might come up, know that you’ve got my full attention & effort at your disposal.

    Hard Work

    I have a 100% philosophy in my life; anything I set my hand to, I do it 100%. No lukewarm communication, no half-ass efforts. Lots of work, lots of play, lots of joy.

    Entrepreneurship

    Building my business has truly been one of the great joys of my life. I know what it’s like to have that burning feeling in your gut that you’ve got to hustle on your own…& I know about the challenges that go with that, too. For me, that’s meant a full-on inundation into media buying, audio engineering, brand development, skill building, & the other myriad skills that solopreneurs have to have. If that’s you? Know that I get it, I’m hustling too, & I’ll meet you where you are.

    Elbow Room

    I saved the best for last here. In everything I do, whether in business or in life, I’m pushing toward more freedom - more elbow room. For me, that means being my own boss, calling my own shots, & working with folks I want to work with.  For you, maybe that means finally finding talent that gets it; that can elevate the project or campaign you’ve already worked so hard on, & set you free to move on to your next big thing (which you can also call me about). If that sounds like you, I’m your girl.

WHERE I WORK

Homesteading in Arkansas (but still taking the show on the road!)

Fablehound started…in a closet. It was just a side hustle, a twinkle in my eye that suggested, maybe, I could tell stories in a way that people would find compelling (and eventually worth paying for).

Now, that closet is far behind me, but that twinkle has developed into a rock-solid conviction that storytelling is just as fundamental as I suspected, & more productive than I could’ve ever dreamed.

Since its official incorporation in 2020, Fablehound has evolved into a heavy-hitting creative business that's constantly movin' & shakin' in the field of voiceover. As the captain of this ship, I'm an excessively-trained actor who had the happy discovery that my skills as a performer could help me build my dream life.

My "home base" studio is located in Arkansas, where I grew up. The alignment of my skills with this profitable niche brought me back to this “home base” in many ways, whether we’re talkin’ property ownership, a borderline-obsessive venture into homesteading, a fully outfitted mobile recording studio, or the joyful opportunity to share adventure with my very favorite folks.
