MEET KARA
Kara is no stranger to a microphone. In addition to voice over she is also a professional Karaoke Host, Emcee and Event Moderator. She has lent her voice to commercials, explainer videos, eLearning videos, corporate narration and more.
An avid music lover, Kara learned how to sing AND use a microphone at two years old on Grandma’s 8-track karaoke machine. She grew up with a passion for the arts and performing. She received her B.A. in Theatre from Arizona State University and completed the two year Meisner Training Program at the William Esper Studio in NYC. A trained classical singer, Kara would much rather belt out an 80’s power ballad or a show tune.
Whether it’s singing a show tune or voicing a commercial, she truly enjoys the power of music and storytelling. And thanks to her background in theatre and emceeing she can take direction and think on her feet! Whatever your project may be, she’ll bring it to life!
She currently resides in Santa Monica where she owns and operates Kara Karaoke Entertainment. When Kara isn’t hosting karaoke for private parties and events she can be found recording voice overs and vocals in her home studio. All of her work is recorded and produced by her husband, David Bertok - a professional TV and Film composer and graduate of USC’s Film Scoring Program.
