  • Gabriel originally auditioned for the voice of Korra in The Legend of Korra but was cast as the voice of Asami Sato instead.[4]
  • Asami Sato was Gabriel's first voice acting role.
  • Gabriel initially remembered Asami's name because it sounded like "salami".[5]
  • Gabriel's favorite character in The Legend of Korra is Lin Beifong.[6]
