How did you come to performing audiobooks?

I left a friend a voice memo complaining about my mother. (REALLY) And her husband who produces commercials overheard my memo and suggested I explore the commercial VO space. Then a friend, upon hearing I was exploring VO, suggested I explore audiobooks and connected me with my first mentor, an incredible NYC based narrator. My mentor then helped me curate my learning experience, which included participating in the PRHA Mentorship Program. After I completed that program and then attended the first Thriving Narrators Retreat with Jennifer Jill Araya – my narration career launched and it’s been an incredible ride ever since.

Fun facts about Dom: I dislocated my shoulder running away from a spider while on a rock climbing trip, I have the Xavier Roberts tattoo on my right butt cheek because I wanted to be the first Filipino-Italian Cabbage Patch Kid, and I think poop jokes are funny and follow way too many dad jokes instagram accounts.
