What happens when you combine a degree in literature, a decade of work in marketing, and a lifelong love for storytelling?
You get me, Lexi Chingcuangco-Tan—a voiceover artist armed with a lot of learned experience, a penchant for nuance, and a desire to create art with my voice at any given moment.
A little bit about me: I live in the Philippines, I love all things fandom, and I truly believe that when you find the right voice for the right character, you can change lives with wonder!
I recorded my first commercial before I turned ten-years-old. I was cast as a kid announcer for a local F&B radio ad for a Kelly doll collaboration. I haven’t looked back from the booth since.
But as they say, the real world is a harsh teacher. What I wanted to do as my full-time job eventually turned into a side gig, done in my spare time. But no milestone was wasted! I used this desire to tell stories as my guiding star. I specialized in literature so I could write well and understand what made characters and plots compelling. Each role I took on after college taught me the ins and outs of the creative industry.
After a little over a decade of climbing the corporate ladder (EY Philippines, Maersk International), pitching storyboards and copy to clients (Jump Digital Agency, Accenture), creating social media marketing plans (AirAsia Philippines), and staring at SEO keywords so Google ads could run optimized (Katapult Digital), I finally felt like I had enough experience to make it to the starting line. Now, my 5-9 is my 9-5!
