Growing up in rural Minnesota, Mana T. Johnson (pronounced MAN-uh) began studying theater in middle and high school.

While she attended college at the University of Minnesota for Art, she performed at Nickelodeon Universe in the Mall of America as many of their costumed characters.

Additionally, Mana had been cosplaying since 2012 under the name Mana-T Cosplay. She engaged in acting through in-character panels and short form skits online, both of which she regularly wrote, cast, and directed. She was a featured cosplayer at more than 10 conventions throughout Florida before she decided to dive into professional acting.

In 2021, Mana began taking voice over classes. However, in early 2023, Mana was cast in The Haunted Tavern, The Shipwreck Saloon, and The Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy. She toured American performing in this trio of live stage shows for 12 months.

Performing live theater gave Mana invaluable acting experience, but ultimately, her passion was still voice acting. So, in 2024, she picked up voice over classes again and began auditioning for voice over roles.

Since then, Mana has been cast in various anime/live action dubbing, video game, animation, audio book narration, and commercial roles.

Mana T. Johnson is best known for her character work dubbing anime with Ascendent Animation and SkySet Entertainment and voicing various roles for Bratz social media.

She is excited for her voice acting future and aspires to one day be the voice that says “Please watch your step while boarding the ride.”
