My Voice Experience

I've been in the voiceover profession for more than 15 years. From Radio and TV commercials, Infomercials, on-hold Messages, Corporate Presentations, Training videos and a variety of other voice over pieces, I'll be sure to give your project the "pop" it needs to stand out in the crowd.

I promise you a quality v/o delivered promptly...and within your budget! Click on my website and browse the demos! If you don't hear the exact delivery you want, feel free to contact me for a free voice over audition.

We can even set up a convenient time for you to listen in via phone or ISDN to be sure you get the read you want.

A short list of clients include Disney Vacation Club, AT&T, Pepsi Bottling Company, Pioneer Hi-Bred, Comcast Cable, Beaner's Gourmet Coffee as well as narration for the Kentucky tourism board, Two Men and a Truck International and voice of the Outdoor Channels "Outdoor America".

My Training

I began as a radio announcer in 1989 and became a fulltime v/o pro in 1996. Don't worry, the "announcer voice" can be disengaged to fit any commercial...or turned on if you need "Don Pardo"
