art bautista

 I’m a Filipino American voice actor, singer, and character performer based in the Bay Area, with a strong background in comedy, stage acting, and live performance. I grew up mimicking voices, accents, and emotional tones with precision, drawing inspiration from cartoons, family members, and the diverse voices around me in Oakland. As a lead singer and trained vocalist, I bring musicality and dynamic range to every read. My years caring for my father through his schizophrenia—and channeling my childhood trauma into my work as a fine artist—have tuned me into deep emotional currents, so I bring raw honesty, empathy, and subtle nuance to every narration. I’m especially drawn to projects that reflect underrepresented voices and carry emotional weight, with a special passion for Filipino and multicultural narratives.
