My experience is mainly in radio imaging production. However I am looking to use my state of the art studio to branch out into new new areas of voice production.

My Training

My first taste of doing voice work was during my college days at the University Of Cincinnati. I graduated with an Electronic Media degree from the College Conservatory of Music. The focus of my study was audio production. Our first few projects in multi-track recording were spec commercials. I always thought creating these was a blast. Almost 12 years later I have my own studio and have been Imaging radio stations. Outside of voice over/imaging work I have been known to sing a jingle or two.
I have also produced 2 cd's from Arizona local bands. 1 of which was the top selling local cd of 2001 and helped get the band signed to a major label.In 2008 I was awarded parody song of the year by New Times magazine for my song "Scottsdale Bars" which also had an alternate version in San Diego called "Gaslamp Bars" that became number 20 on 91x best songs of 2008.
