My Voice Experience

Radio broadcaster from 1974-1997 with numerous voice over clients. Local cable channel TV news field reporter for two years in the late 80's. Live nightclub DJ from '76-'97. Performed live in front of thousands of people nightly as a Cruise Director from '97-'07. Hosted many live concerts, charity events, theater productions, talent shows, fashion shows, etc. Provided voice for phone messages for many local business. I was also selected as one of the highlighted Cruise Directors on the "Do's and Dont's of Cruising" documentary still being aired on The Travel Channel.

My Training

Got into radio when I was only 14 years old and continued training through college courses such as speechwriting and verbal communication. Gained invaluable experience in more than 23 years as a radio broadcaster and two years in TV news and broadcast journalism and 10 years as a Cruise Director.

My Studio Equipment

I currently use an ASUS Mobile laptop with the Audacity software program. I can import music, sound effects, etc. with the CD/DVD system and record in 16, 24 or 32 bits. Product deliverable via e-mail in virtually any format.

Additional Skills

A very easy-going personality that is unobtrusive and people oriented. I have spent my entire working career in the entertainment industry and doing voice over work is a natural extension of that career.
