My Voice Experience

I first began voice over some years ago when I did a local television commercial for our public transportation system called Via.I played a school teacher that used the bus for transportation. In the commercial, my voice told my story as I was shown doing various activities like dropping my children off at school and working as a teacher.

The next voice over work I did was in an industrial film that advertised a program that assisted students with a statewide test formerly known as the TAAS Test.

Another voice project I delivered when I was a teacher, was as the narrator of a Christmas CD called The Night Before Christmas
