Who I Am
I tell stories that quietly stir -- with heart, mystery, and meaning.
Hi, I’m Marian — a multimedia storyteller with a warm, clear voice and an intuitive sense of emotion. I narrate audiobooks, write books and scripts, and coach fellow creatives.
Shaped by vocal training at Chicago’s Second City and years of writing, editing, and creative development, I bring grounded delivery, vibrant character presence, and an instinct for tone and tempo.
I’m especially drawn to female-led stories — from clever middle grade adventures to twisty YA, cozy thrillers, chick lit, and emotionally rich fiction. I also enjoy narrating nonfiction in personal finance and self-help — subjects I know well thanks to a background in media, marketing, and finance (Series 65 included!). I’ve also worked as a college writing instructor, which makes academic and instructional content feel like a second home.
At heart, I believe in storytelling that connects — whether it’s heartfelt, funny, or thoughtful. I bring that same spirit to every story I tell.
