My Voice Experience

Starting in the late 1990's as an intern at WPLR, a CT radio station, I quickly developed a passion for voice over acting. In 2006 I was a recurring character on the "Culture Cocktail", a radio program dedicated to promoting the arts in the greater Waterbury Area. 2007 brought an opportunity to work on the "Live with Lisa" radio program. At this time, I also began volunteering at Recording for the Blind and Dyslexic, where I stayed until the New Haven, CT branch was shut down. These experiences gave me an opportunity to do everything from character work, to hard and soft sell, to narration.

Additional Skills

My full time profession is as a Ballroom Dance instructor. Out of a sales staff of three, I am responsible for over half of the business' gross income. I understand how to make connections with people. As a teacher, I use these connections to inspire. This job has also given me an intimate understanding of rhythm and flow. All of this serves to make my performances powerful. Not only in Dance. I am also a stand-up comedian. The skills that I have sharpened in the arena of dance, I have applied, and refined to the world of comedy. Let me put these tools to work for you.
