Voice Description

My Home Base

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

I speak British English but can modify it to sound hoity-toity, or Scottish or even Hindu. My American version is not that good, though...

I command various Spanish accents: born in Buenos Aires I speak the vernacular Porteño accent spoken both in Buenos Aires and Montevideo, Uruguay. But I have been summoned to do Castillian (Madrid accent) by companies such as IBM and had a speaking part in Santiago Segura's feature film Torrent 3, El Protector". I have also worked for Latin American companies in my "neutral" Spanish.

My Italian and French are very fluent too.

I have also created mock languages for various commercials, from mock Chinese to an invented "Yeti language".
