My Voice Experience

Well, at the moment, my professional VO experience stretches no further than having done several auditions for companies like State Farm, Nintendo, Kellogs, Nationwide Insurance and various other. I auditioned through Innovative Artists Inc in Chicago back when they were still Voices Unlimited. Nothing landed, but hopefully all that will change here! I am curently working pro bono with independent comic writers and cartoonists to voice a few characters for an upcoming animated short series based off of a popular online computer game.

My Training

Voiceover classes from The Audition Studio in Chicago with Voiceover industry professionals like Thompson Howell and Jeff Lupetin. Jeff lupetin and his partner Darren Stephens recorded and produced my main commercial Demo. It was thanks to their praise and hand delivering my demo to their agency that I was able to get my foot in the door at all. If my VO career ever seriously takes off I owe those two big time. As stated above I've had professional industry auditions and received much positive feedback from the agency I went through. I'm also an avid VO geek I would say. Every sort of video or piece of media that comes along showcasing voiceover artists in any way I am drawn to. I love watching the actors stand behind the mic and hearing the voices spew forth. An odd thing about me is I have an mp3 player full of other professional artists demos so I can siphon experience through them.
