My Voice Experience

I've been doing the sole character voice for Foofa on Nickelodeon's Yo Gabba Gabba for three seasons since 2005. With over 40 episodes completed, I know how to take direction and work with engineers to get the best product possible.
You can hear my voice in Foofa toys at most national retailers-Walmart, Target, TJ Maxx to name a few. As well as the Yo Gabba Gabba website. I recently recorded the Yo Gabba Live! stage show track for the US as well as Australia.
Recently I did a National Ad campaign for the National Forest playing on the East Coast as well as various radio spots and back up singing for the past few years.

My Training

I was born to VO acting parents within a family of child actors that have worked for Disney, ABC, CBS, NBC, Don Bluth, Michael Mish, among others. Perhaps that's why I naturally have an interesting voice quality and have picked up on professional VO so quickly.
I have a Bachelor's degree from Brigham Young University and have taken multiple professional and college VO workshops with Christopher Robin Miller and Scott Shurian.

My Studio Equipment

I have easy access to several studios near my home with all of the top-of-the-line mics, sound-proofing, editing software, connection-speed available for the best sound possible with rates as low as $50 an hour.

Additional Skills

I love authenticity...whether it's just playing a real person dealing with loss, a goofy teenager, or an over-the-top spokesperson.
I love meeting new people and quickly facilitating fun and humor. I'm big on effective communication but don't believe in hogging all the talk in conversations.
Because I have experience and talent, I'm a big advocate of mutual respect, courtesy, and accountability. I take direction within rushed time limits and get it right fast.
