Joanna Ruiz
Joanna Ruiz is a British voice actress. She has mainly done voice acting for children's television shows.
Career
In 1993, she moved to Cardiff, Wales and attended the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, where she sang in a band and performed jingles for radio and television commercials. Ruiz' breakthrough came when she was asked to audition for the role of Casper the Friendly Ghost for a re-dub of the 1995 film, and got the role after practising from the film's soundtrack. She discovered her skills at imitating young children, and shifted from acting to focus more on voice acting, although she decided to stay and finish her course.
Ruiz has provided voices for various children's television shows and commercials, including Make Way for Noddy, Fireman Sam, LazyTown, Fifi and the Flowertots, Horrid Henry, Poppy Cat, Toby's Travelling Circus, and Dennis & Gnasher: Unleashed!. She also did voices for audiobooks by David Walliams and David Baddiel.
