My Training

Acting Classes Growing up from Junior High To High School. I would say the majority of my learning has been from being an MC for several different functions and learning what works for different demographics of people. As a dj mc for weddings, parties, social events, clubs, corporate parties, funerals, luaus and much more I have learned how to use my voice to convey different things to different audiences and have basically learned alot through personal experience at events like these. Of course a few classes were taken in college but to perfectly honest I never got a degree in voice acting... I would like one however.. :)

My Studio Equipment

I use logic studio eight recording software with an mxl 006 usb condenser mic from home, I also use protools 7.3 and am also familiar with the latest cubase software along with Digital Performer. Although i do not have any mic preamps other than the built in preamps on my digi 002 I do have access to a professional sound studio that runs the latest protools hd set up. However for most projects I have done in the past My Logic Studio has been sufficient. I can mix and master all projects to my best ability and then send the mp3 file or aiff file via internet.

Additional Skills

I have been a musician for several years playing in an array of different environments in a number of different bands. Sometimes being the front man other times just playing the rythm guitar but playing at every notable club in hollywood has been no easy feat and I have accomplished it, as well as touring Nationally, I am an ameteur recording engineer with my own home studio running protools le 7.3 and The new logic 8. So I am capable of recording high quality voice overs from home and sending files via internet. I am also an accomplished songwriter and have written music for Television, Podcasts, Commercials, and other various projects. I love working in the voice field and hope to be working with you soon..
