My unusual history as a voice over artist actually started as an Assistant Editor on "Smallville" where I would sometimes stop by to join in on the Loop Group/ADR sessions for fun. This intro to voice acting was very rigorous and exhilarating. With everyone's encouragement plus a few voice over classes, I decided to pursue this path. So here I am! I am non-Union, seeking representation. I love working in the booth, speaking into the microphone, and cold reading. Plus, I am a curler, and this sport enables me to really exercise my lung capacity. Interesting voice highlights: Natural contagious laugh and screams like a banshee Attached is my commercial demo and resume. I hope that you will find me interesting and in line with what you are looking for. (My voice highlights are not in the demo because I am hoping it will give you a reason to hear for yourself.) I know you go through a hundred of these everyday; so I thank you very much for your time and effort (Mahalo!).

Post Production is my forte, and I have a very good ear for audio. I loved putting together projects like sizzle reels and previously-ons. I also dabble in a bit of writing. I find that all this knowledge has been very helpful understanding the script and creating great natural sounding performances. Plus, I love to laugh. I love to scream. Use and abuse me.
