INSTRUCTOR BIO
Keri Tombazian
Keri enjoys a robust spectrum of work built over decades as one of the top booking women in voice over. She is a lady of firsts: One of the first women to crack network promos. As a young artist, she was the voice of the computer on the first Mattel home video game, the first female to guest host for Casey Kasem's American Top 40 and the first Los Angeles based voice artist to sign with Atlas Talent when they debuted in LA.
Keri is one of the rare voiceover artists who made the leap from radio. She spent years entertaining Southern Californians as the host of Night Grooves on 94.7 The Wave. Catch her now on tv voicing CBS Network promos, as Dr. Faith Carter in the #1SiFi podcast on Apple and Spotify—See You In Your Nightmares, and the branding voice for California Energy. Video Games include Paladins, Call of Duty, Red Dead Redemption II, ADR1FT.
