MY NARRATION JOURNEY
Aisha Kasmir was the nerdy kid in class who’s hand was sky-high, volunteering to read out loud and still gets a kick reading everything from menus to instruction manuals. She even started an audio series called, “Aisha Reads Anything” where she narrates works written by friends. With a voice that’s been described as clear and bright, she brings her energetic personality and fresh take to anything she vocalizes.
A dedicated bibliophile, one of her favorite traditions is to spend one Sunday a month reading in bed all day. This practice fuels her love for literature, diving into stories about daring heroines, heady romances, quiet country life, or disquieting alternate realities.
Aisha has more than 20 years performing, singing and acting, and is a seasoned producer, with experience in stage, film and music production. Her diverse background gives her a unique perspective on storytelling and holistic approach to audiobook narration.
When she’s not narrating dishwasher settings, she can be found in the park with her senior pup, Pixie, or sketching out fantastical creatures. And yeah, she drew all the illustrations on her website.
