Ann SprinkleBorn with music in her veins, Ann Sprinkle was classically trained in voice and received her master's degree from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. As a professional opera singer, actor, and voice teacher, she worked many odd jobs and found heself in the academic world of medical education. She later became a speech language pathologist with a specialty in gender affirming voice and combined her love of music, voice, and education to help others. As a lifelong learner, she discovered audiobooks through her curious nature and love of science and true stories. A proud member of SAG-AFTRA with over fifty books recorded thus far, her favorite genres are nonfiction (self-improvement, growth, and development) comedies and mystery/thrillers, because the "truth is stranger than fiction!" In addition to audiobook narration, Ann is also the owner and founder of Viable Voice & Speech, LLC, where she provides voice and speech therapy services, including gender affirming voice training, professional speaking and coaching services, accent modification/English pronunciation services, and more.

When she's not working, she enjoys exploring trails with her scrappy hiking buddy (a rescue dog named Bear), yoga, learning about neuroscience and the mysteries of the world, and venturing to new places.
