What should I do to reach my dreams to become a full voice actor?

What should I start with to be a voice actor despite being deaf? How should I figure out how to improve voice changing, specifically male voices so I can try out male characters too? When is it best to move on to audition for cartoons and movies after I start with YouTube? It's hard for me since Im deaf and my voice is annoying still but I really wanna be a voice actor.

How can I get more involved in film/the entertainment industry while still in high school?

I will be a sophomore in a couple months. I already selected electives such as video production(mainly works on my school’s tv show) and animation for this upcoming year and I took “intro to acting” last school year. I’m also in stage crew for our play and musical. I want to gain more experience and I know that these will help but I want to be involved outside of just classes. What’s the next step that I should be taking to get involved and gaining experience?

Why did you choose voice-acting?

Why did you choose voice-acting over other forms of acting, like film, tv, or stage. Are you able to perform multiple disciplines of acting or do you have to pick one and stick with it.
