My Voice Experience

I started working as an actress on TV when I was a child. Shortly after my first acting-jobs I´ve done my first voiceover jobs in dubbing, synchronizing, advertising and voice acting on audiobooks. A little later I put up my own recording studio and composed songs, vocal arrangements and wrote lyrics for my own vocal performances as well as for other artists. I went through different vocal and acting classes listed below and received speechtraining and singing classes on a longterm base.
