Amber Shana Williams

***TIME ZONE*** GMT+2 (Central Europe)

Hi there! My name is Amber, and I am a SAG-AFTRA (USA) & Equity (UK) actor that has worked in this industry for over 12 years. I deeply enjoy my job, and I love reading for actors almost as much as I love being an actor myself. When delivering a compelling performance, having the energy of a present reader is incredibly important. Though I was born and raised in Texas, I currently live and work between Europe and North America.

Working across different markets globally, allows me to use my knowledge and experience to tailor to your specific needs as a storyteller. My goal is to help you feel satisfied with your work, and that your read is as honest and authentic as possible. You being happy with your performance is my goal, and I am here to help with that in any way that I can. Also, I LOVE hearing back from you guys whenever you've booked something that we've worked on. Your joy and success is a win for us both.

Do you have a LAST MINUTE self tape request or want to schedule an audition ahead of time? No worries, shoot me an email if I'm not online. I am usually available as early or as late as you need, for as long as you need. We can adapt to what serves you best.

If you're looking for a patient reader to standby as you memorize or tape, you're wanting attentive feedback, or you just want someone to bounce ideas off of; I'd be more than happy to help you with it all.

Hope to hear from you soon, and wishing you all the best. HAPPY BOOKING!
