Aaron Burke (he/him) fell in love with the performing arts in high school, taking up theater, choir, music, and dance. After exploring improv and recording music for many years while working in diverse fields, he finally fell into voice acting primed and ready to go, studying at Berkeley Repertory School of Theater and Voice One SF with Sally Clawson and many other excellent teachers.


Clay Robeson has been performing and teaching improvisation for over 20 years. Whether it’s for the stage, the corporate world, or as an avenue to more organic character creation and storytelling, he believes the end goal is always to learn to trust yourself and the people around you. Currently, with the help of Voice One’s amazing faculty, he is exploring how improvisation can help Voice Actors with auditions, in the booth, and with overcoming other obstacles. Clay has worked and taught with Boston’s Improv Asylum, San Francisco’s Un-Scripted Theater Company, Moment Improv Theatre, and 42nd Street Moon's Moon School youth theater program along with various other improv casts around the country. Clay has delivered workshops geared towards all age ranges for aspiring improvisors from 50th Birthday Party groups to Girl Scout troops to High School robotics clubs. He also tours improv festivals with Bookends, a two-person improvised musical inspired by Jason Robert Brown’s The Last Five Years.
