My voice has been been my unique strength throughout life (and now it can benefit you).
I design narrated PowerPoint presentations, trainings, webinars and instructional flash presentations.
I started imitating the voices of comedians (Bob Newhart, Shelley Berman) at age 12 for live audiences of up to 2,100, was the voice talent for Christmas pageants starting at age 15, imitated rock singers in my band all through high school, had a radio show in college and put myself through college (UCSB) performing rock and soul music doing lead voices of Jim Morrison (Doors), Eric Burden (Animals), and many others.
During summer college breaks, I was the voice/driver for Disneyland's Main Street Omnibus.
After grad school, I began a musical act doing voices ranging from Neil Diamond to the Everly Brothers and Elvis, to Hoyt Axton.
I have served as on-camera host for industrial videos, I have trained judges and lawyers on how to use their natural voices more effectively in the courtroom, and have been called a "silver tongued devil" by more than one judge.
