Maihan is an Asian-American voice actor born and raised in Southern California, between the edges of culturally rich Los Angeles and Orange County. Maihan (aka Han!) has the unique experience of organizing classes and building communities for her fellow actors while pursuing a voice acting career. She can be found utilizing her Bachelor’s degree in Entertainment Business and Tourism Management through production work on video games, and managing events and communities professionally. When not playing Final Fantasy XIV, Han is mastering the art of all-you-can-eat, drinking her weight in boba milk teas, and showing off photos of her cats, Lucky “Marshie” Marshmallow and Anthony “Toni” Macaroni.

Q: What’s something that happened this year that you’re really proud of?

I’m always proud to be a part of projects with my friends.

Q: What’s one of your major takeaways from participating in THNEA classes? 

Keep it messy! We’re human and imperfect, so our performances should reflect that.

Q: If you can give your past self one piece of advice at the start of your journey, what would it be? 

What everyone says about this all being a marathon and not a race is absolutely true and there are more people rooting for you than you think.
