My Voice Experience

I have recorded music and mock radio programs since a very young age.

I spoke frequently on my weekly radio program on WUTK 90.3 in Knoxville, TN from 1998 to 2001.

I have produced several short mock news pieces and songs in my studio.

I have released three CD's of songs that I wrote, produced and performed. The first two were released strictly on the internet. The last of these is internationally available in hard form.

Currently I work as a DJ and emcee for local events (weddings, proms, etc.) with a weekly gig at a local sports bar.

My Training

I have a Bachelors degree in communications. My major is broadcasting. My minor is cinema studies.

I own my own recording company, El Deth Inc., which has afforded me much work emceeing events, as well as becoming proficient in the studio.

Currently, I am working towards a Masters degree in elementary education.

My Studio Equipment

Roland VS-2480
Cool Edit Pro
MC-909
many, many microphones

Additional Skills

I can generally "fake my way" well through a first read, and nail the material in very few subsequent reads.

Articulation comes very natural to me.
