Voice Description

How would you describe my voice?

How about Confident, Versatile, Friendly, Trustworthy, Professional, Bold, Creative and Engaging?

I am that real person's voice you want for your commercial project, the confident corporate voice you need for your business narration, the empathetic voice that will bring the listener deeper into your documentary, the highly charged, zany voice that will let your animation character leap into life!

Let me paint an incredible soundscape for the ears, using your words!

In my 19 years of working with voice, I've gained experience with long form narration and documentaries, radio & TV commercial work, on-hold messaging and animation. I have many developed characters & personas and would be pleased to create one unique to your project. I take direction well, possess a strong work ethic, and am commited to excellent quality & ongoing performance development.
