She constantly rechecks details to ensure that projects will run smoothly, on time, and on budget.
She started her career at Edge in the Education Department, working hands-on with new and established voice over actors. This experience has helped her understand and respect voice over from both a client and a talent perspective.
Kendra currently lives in Washington, DC, with her husband. She was born and raised in a small town below Pittsburgh, PA. She also spent almost eight years in Toronto, so she has a great love for our northern neighbors, just not their winter temperatures.

She loves decorating rooms for herself and others and is constantly switching things around or thinking about her next project.

Sara Huber
Director of Finance
One day shy of her eighteenth birthday, Sara Huber made her way across the Hudson River from New Jersey and settled into the place she always knew she was meant to be. After graduating from NYU with a dual major in Economics and Journalism, Sara began a career in the fashion industry, working alongside a then-unknown designer, learning how to build an empire from the ground up. Through an eclectic resume of other roles, Sara learned the ins and outs of bookkeeping, tax filing, international logistics, operations and how to source just about anything. Replying to a temp ad one day, Sara was sent from the agency directly to meet with Edge Studio Managing Director Andrew Warner on site, then invited back to meet owner and founder David Goldberg the following day. Proving she was meant to be a part of the team, she received a call with an offer just under 50 hours after submitting her resume. Two months later, she became a permanent member of the Edge family.
As perhaps the sole Edge Studio employee without a performance background, the only chance of catching Sara on television will be if she receives an invitation to compete on Jeopardy! Until then, Sara Huber enjoys doing the New York Times crossword puzzle (only on Saturdays) and traveling around the world, from Finland to Fiji to France.
Joshua Wise
Office and Marketing Lead
Joshua Wise hails originally from Massachusetts, where he spent his entire young life cultivating a passion and devotion to the arts. A singer since age three, an actor since age five, and a pianist since age seven, his years of musical theatre (and eventually show choir) and choral training afforded him in-depth vocal training and he soon graduated from Pace University in New York City with a BFA in Acting.
During his time in New York City, Joshua has gone on to music direct and compose for Fringe Festival works, graced the Off-Broadway stage both as a performer and a stagehand, led and directed an improv comedy troupe, and narrated for live theatrical presentations.

He also has taught voice, piano, and acting lessons in multiple states and Puerto Rico.
As a voice actor, Joshua has also provided his voice for both live and recorded narration for a number of presentation events, hosted several orientations, English dubbing for foreign language film, and promotional material for coffee houses, music stores, and more. Aside from work and the arts, Joshua’s favorite things are spending time with his love, friends, and family, and has begun to develop a real soft spot for cooking.
