My Voice Experience

I am extremely talented when it comes to my voice and have been for over 30 years. I am a singer, and have sang since I was 5 years old. (When I lived in Philadelphia as a child up to my teenage years), my voice was first noticed as great when I was in kindergarten and my elementary school principal requested that I use my voice to do the morning announcements from kindergarten to 4th grade.(1977-1981). After being accepted one of the best schools in Philadelphia for scoring the highest each year (out of all the other students state wide on the Philadelphia statewide achievement test, I was selected to attend J.R. Masterman Laboratory and Demonstration School (a special school for talented and gifted students from all over the state of Pennsylvania (1982-1986). Here I used my voice to perform announcements regarding special events, etc. I also sang in school talent show, placing 1st each time). I used my voice in school plays, comedies, etc. When I graduated from middle school in 1986, I received a special award for achievements in these activities and being gifted in voice in all areas. From 1986, I continued on in high school (1986-1990), performing in talent shows, again placing 1st and using my voice over the loud speaker (upon request from the staff). I received special awards because of my academics and vocal achievements that I contributed to my high school years (1986-1990). From that point on I received office jobs that hired me because of my gifted vocal abilities as well as my credentials (US-Gov't, for example). Receptionist positions that required me to use the paging/intercom system (in which I was promoted because of the popularity of my voice as well as my job performance). For over 10 years I have received rave reviews, customer service awards and promotion because of my voice (vocal abilities).
