Actor, so I can memorize the script, and deliver on the first take.
I've been involved in Drama/Theater classes all my life. In the fourth grade I was the Grinch, and have been hooked ever since. Theater major my freshman year in college. Graduated in 1995 with a BA in Mass Communications, and a minor in Public Relations. Numerous classes on Voice and Diction. I have attended numerous tournaments competing in: Public Speaking, Persuasion, Debate, Poetry and Prose, Dramatic Interpretation, Comedy, and Duet Acting. Numerous plays and musicals. My mother taught nursing on the college/university level, so I always had an in to be in college plays and musicals from a very young age. In high school, i got my first DJ position at a college radio station, and worked late nights, at three all together, playing with and learning the equipment, and experimenting with making PSAs to play during other people's shifts. As a production photographer for a CBS affiliate and a video production company, I took advantage of putting myself in the voice over roll, before the client knew what hit them. I also have a very extensive sales background and have always done well at advertising and real estate sales.
I have a Mac Laptop, a Toshiba/PC laptop, a
Blue SNOWBALL USB Microphone w/ Blue Ringer Mic Shockmount, and homemade pop screen.
I have extensive sales skills, and have studied and taken many sales courses or seminars. I can help close the deal, in that situation. I'm not a con artist. I can't sell an ice cube maker to an Eskimo, people can tell that, and that's why they trust me and confide in me.
