Voice Description

Eclectic talent befitting a voice actor. Youthful natural voice that can easily sound bubbly, energetic, and excited. Flexible to also sound warm, soothing, and relaxing. Ability to stretch from straight forward and professional to silly and playful.

Quirky energetic personality allows for creating an expansive variety of characters. That, coupled with experience in improvisation, translates into an ability to create a unique voice to match a character outline or illustration superb for animation.

A welcoming voice perfectly suited to voicemail greetings.

Experience gained as a Producer/Director in industrials allows her voice talent to breathe life into technical scripts without making them unbelievable or stilted.

Beautiful flow and keen script interpretation for character and narration work.

Can speak unaccented Spanish from script.
