Voice Description

I am a normally, eccentric individual. I'm weird, odd, peculiar, and certainly quirky... you know... like the rest of us!

My voice is resonating, solid, and certainly thorough. While being inside a 6'3" frame helps with my natural Bass / Baritone sound, I can deliver even the girliest of sounds, too.

With more than 12+ years as a public speaker (adult education - College/University level) as well as having 3-5 years as a Children's Minister and licensed Minister (1983-1993), my ability to adapt my voice to the environment, circumstances, and special occasion is impeccable.

Combine this with a strong wit and great sense of timing (I am also a Drummer!), and you have one very sound package (pun intended) that is filled with versatility, charisma, and value.

Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

From Yogi Bear to some Sesame Street characters (I love Cookie Monster) to the Travelocity Gnome (I'm on my way), I have a knack for adapting my voice to match the characters that already exist.

Although I was born in Long Beach, CA, I was reared between So. Cal and Austin, TX, so I have a wide range of dialect and abilities to add/remove twang as needed.

My Voice Experience

A warm, friendly voice with engaging tonal quality and a gentle delivery. Timing, pace and inflection were well handledl and your read was believable.

Presenting a 30-40s range sound, with an ability to deepen and soften it for Voice Mail systems and Audiobook reads, or even push that diaphram hard and consistently to get that strong "Sunday, SUNday, SUNDAY" sound for your marketing needs.
