I’m Sion Dayson
I’m Sion Dayson an American voice artist living in Valencia, Spain.
I love bringing my passion for storytelling and service to voiceover projects.
If you’re looking for a female voiceover artist with a neutral American accent, I’m your gal.
Born in New York, raised in North Carolina, studies in Ghana and Mexico, a decade in Paris (where I acquired French nationality), and currently the Mediterranean coast – I’ve been lucky enough to call many amazing places home.
My previous careers as a writer and teacher (EFL, creative writing, Pilates!) mean I really know how to connect to your copy and engage listeners.
And my vast international and intercultural experience means I’m adaptable, flexible, and open-minded. This curiosity means I’m delighted to learn about your projects and find the best way to be of assistance to you.
My extensive background in editorial and educational roles lends itself perfectly to all types of narration (corporate, medical, documentary), e-learning, explainer, audio description, and commercial voiceover needs.

Sion doesn’t see challenges, she sees pathways, and doesn’t give up until the destination is reached. Great listener, kind, funny. A pleasure to work with!”
