About Sanya

Sanya Simmons is a Black Latina American woman, and while she doesn’t speak Spanish, her love for her Abuela grounded Sanya in her Afro-Cuban heritage. She’s the down-to-earth cool mom everyone can talk to who lovingly tells it like it is, even when that’s hard to hear. Sanya’s also the sweet, sometimes naïve, girl who’s in love with being in love. Need someone to explain something in terms that anyone can understand? That describes Sanya, too!

Sanya’s alto voice is warm, grounded, genuine, textured, and credible. She enjoys Rom Com, Cozy Mystery, YA, Memoir, Romance, True Crime and Crime Fiction, and Thriller genres. Non-fiction topics that are sure to catch Sanya’s interest are those involving African American History and Current Issues, Social Justice, Inclusivity, LGBTQTSI+, Mental Health, and Spirituality.

Sanya Simmons is also a musician and the author of A Single Mom’s Guide to Raising Black (Gentle)Men. She is a member of SAG-AFTRA, APA, PANA, and NAVA.

She records in her professional Home Studio. Let Sanya help you bring your story to life!

People Are Saying...

Simmons found warmth in my story *I* hadn’t even noticed was there.

ZZ Claybourne - Author

Sanya is an excellent narrator and a pleasure to work with. She is thoughtful, kind, and professional. She genuinely cares about the quality of her work, is open to feedback and direction, and takes the time to build lasting and meaningful relationships with the people in the organizations she works with. I highly recommend her for your next project.

I love working with Sanya. Not only is she a talented voice artist who never fails to bring my characters to life, but her communication, professionalism and punctuality are impossible to fault.

L.M. - Author

Sanya is a fantastic narrator! Our authors have been 100% satisfied with every project she has completed for our publishing house. Sanya is very professional and communicates with our staff on expected completion dates. If we could duplicate her we would over and over again.

Professionalism at its best! Sanya is in constant communication with our staff allowing us to set realistic expectations for our authors. She is a professional voice narrator in every aspect. We highly recommend Sanya as a narrator but not too much because we need her availability 🙂
