I have experience in radio spots, promo video voice overs, political TV ads and PSAs. Bachelor's Degree in Voice Performance, Voice & Speech training at American Academy of Dramatic Arts, acting classes at Peter Frisch Studio and John Randle's Actor Boot Camp. I have extensive theater experience as well as over a decade of operatic experience. Some background in public speaking, particularly for women's groups. I own a ZOOM1 and have space in my home to record MP3 files. I have the ability to upload and e-mail files with MacbookPro. As a self-employed singer and actress, I am organized in order to navigate the many facets of my life. My varied experience and flexible schedule allow me to accomplish multiple projects. I am president of Performing Arts Scholarship Foundation, a non-profit in Santa Barbara, that assists young musicians in the area with an annual competition where they vie for cash prizes. It is very rewarding to see the progress of these musicians. Many of our past winners are scattered all over the globe, performing in orchestras, in opera houses, etc.
