My Voice Experience

Carole started singing at a young age and continues to do so. She has soloed at Constitution Hall for an inaugural event. Carole performed with Bob Walters, Lois Keys and Glenn Cunningham giving gospel concerts in churches and numerous other types of events. Her singing style is similar to Julie Andrews. She has also performed with a choral group under the direction of Paul Hall at the Kennedy Center.

Carole transfers her musical coaching to her voice over work, bringing a lot of upbeat energy as well as warmth and sensuality.

Worked for a Fortune 500 company and for law offices where I recorded numerous telephone messages and performed for various functions.
