My Training

I have BA in Communications with performance arts being the focus. I have done graduate study in Communications. Yes, I have been singing most of my life and studied singing and performed on stage for many years. My background in radio, both writing and producing, nutured my skills as a voiceover actor and voiceover talent, bridging the literal "on stage" to the "theatre of mind" audio presention. Over a decade of radio experience and now 10 years as a TV Show host adds to my versatility. I emcee award/fashion/talent/business shows/events on a regular basis.
