I can sound exactly like an old man. I can do either a deep southern or farm-type drawl. I can mimic the speech patterns of children. I can do accents: British, Irish, French, Scandinavian, Eastern European/Slavic (I do a fairly mean Dracula), and German (I even actually speak and understand a little German). I can impersonate Boris Karloff. I can do cartoon characters: Marvin-the-Martian, Yosemite Sam, Yogi Bear and Boo-Boo, Barney Rubble, Bullwinkle, Dudley Do-Right, and Goofy. I can do the Muppet characters Kermit-the-Frog and Gonzo-the-Great. I can be smooth and mellifluous or I can go raspy...I can even sound demonic if asked. My voice is very flexible; I can go a lot of ways with it...I may even be able to do things not listed here because I've never been asked.

My experience (up-to-now) is as an amateur in a former church of mine in San Diego, CA in the late 1970's/early 1980's. Most notably: I played a character named George (a teenager during the time of the American Revolution) in a musical called "REVOLUTIONARY IDEAS." I was the Gospel Writer/Apostle John in a Christian Musical entitled "CELEBRATE LIFE." In both of these cases (and in many others) I also sang. NOW...I'M GOING PROFESSIONAL! I graduated from a Radio Broadcasting Curriculum at National Broadcasting School in Seattle, WA. At the school we did everything: copywriting, running the sound board, voicing, laying sound-effect/background voices and music, and editing. I'm a Such-A-Voice Masterclass graduate. I have a fully equipped in-home studio consisting of: A Sweetwater Creation Station Tower Computer with Pro-Tools recording software and an MBox2Mini to control the Pro-Tools, A Rode NTG2 Directional Shotgun Microphone with Mic Stand and Music Stand, and Sennheiser HD280Pro Closed Studio Headphones.
