My Voice Experience

I've produced a podcast for six years. One of my listeners plays my podcast at dinner time because my voice is a calming influence on her children. I have years of experience producing and editing the audio for this show. I know how to record and produce special effects in the editing process.

My Training

I'm a lawyer with a masters degree in business administration. My passion is technology and travel. I speak and write on a daily basis for my day job and for my Home Based Travel Agent Show.

My Studio Equipment

I use Adobe Audition on a weekly basis to edit my podcasts. I've produced podcasts for six years. I have a Telos telephone interface for telephone interviews but, from experience, Skype has a better audio interface for telephone interviews.

I'm very fussy about my audio. I use noise reduction, normalizing and compression to insure my audio provides a comfortable listening experience.

Additional Skills

I'm trained as an articulate spokesperson as a result of my legal training. I have a voice that can inspire and reflect enthusiasm. I'm very technical and can edit audio tracks to achieve the desired results.
