REVIEWS

When I heard Kristi's voice during auditions, I knew I had a shortlist of one candidate to narrate my ancient historical fiction book Keziah's Song. Kristi brought this book to life, effortlessly mastering a tough pronunciation guide and delivering a performance that was smooth, emotional and deeply engaging. Early reviewers have praised her voice, her production team's technical work, and how the story flowed through her delivery to make a truly immersive listener experience. Her partnership through the project included quality timeline updates, pronunciation clarifications, and other regular communications to ensure that the project met its deadlines and that I understood where we were during the process. Kristi was a joy to work with, and I hope to engage with her again on a future project! - Daryl Potter, author of Keziah's Song

--------------------------------------------------------

I listened to sample after sample and stopped dead in my tracks when I heard Kristi's voice. What impressed me most was her clear and engaging style. She was more than just articulate. Her voice was mature enough to deliver my grown-up content and be taken seriously, but sweet and youthful enough to attract an early-20s audience. Kristi also had exceptional range, which was especially important for the many inflections throughout the entire book. I contacted Kristi right away and she was prompt in her response, and timely in her delivery thereafter. I knew I had the finished product, when I could hear myself speaking through her voice! - Nikki Farrin, author of Why Men Get Married
--------------------------------------------------------

I listened to the audiobook narrated by Kristi Alsip, who was fantastic. I was very happy with the change of narrator. She has a swift pace that adds energy to the read at key moments. I loved her voices and the consistency in them. She had great accents and choices to keep the voices distinct. I really hope she stays with the series. Her tone is slightly raspy and holds all the jaded world weariness of the lead character. - K. April Holgate, Eargasms review of Bad Traffick

--------------------------------------------------------

Kristi Alsip is awesome to work with. She's professional, flexible, and cares about the end product. I knew when I heard her voice she'd be perfect for my character, Leine Basso, and I wasn't disappointed. She finished the production on time and was a dream to work with. If you're looking for a professional voice-over artist who cares as much as you do about your book, look no further.- DV Berkom, author of Bad Traffick

--------------------------------------------------------

Kristi Alsip is a wonderful voiceover actress, and a great narrator. She understands what the client needs when it comes to the interpretation of their books in an audio format. She has a voice that stands out, and is great to work with. Kristi Alsip is a true professional in her industry. - John Wong, Noise Floor, Chicago
--------------------------------------------------------

Kristi is top notch... Skilled and does it right.

- Joe Pelati, author of After Organized Anarchy

--------------------------------------------------------
I've had the great pleasure of working in the recording studio on a good number of occasions with Kristi Alsip. Kristi is a multi-talented artist who is at the core driven by her natural acting ability. Whether she is singing or narrating, she tells an honest and compelling story through subtle modulation, cadence, tempo and pause.

In addition to her artistic skills, Kristi is a complete professional who honors the clock and brings a positive and collaborative attitude to every project. She is highly adaptable, versatile and takes direction very well. I would personally recommend her for any professional project requiring great acting via singing or narration.
- Rich Rankin, President, Mosaic Music, Chicago

...Why Men Get Married by Nikki Farrin and superbly narrated by Kristi Alsip.
