Voice Description

I have a deep, rich voice that is capable of several ranges. When deeper than my conversational tone, my voice can produce a romantic feel, with a sultry bass to accent the copy.
I can produce an even tone that denotes a sense of professionalism and business savvy. Yet, even with this, I still maintain energy to grasp listeners' attention.
At my highest tones, I have an adolescent sound, full of bouncy vibrancy. At any of these levels, I can read quickly while properly enunciating all syllables.

My Voice Experience

Much of my talent experience has been in the theatre. I've auditioned for and received several principal roles in a number of original works produced by my college's Theatre Dept.
I've also staged my own original work as a playwright/director.
I've often had to cast myself for particular roles, for which I've received acclaim from teachers and students alike.
My experience in theatre has taught me the importance of voice range and clarity. I truly started developing my voice-talent when learning to project across a theatre full of patrons, with no PA system to assist.

My Training

I also took classes in dramatic theatre, in addition to an extra-curricular acting class. There, I learned the value of conveying emotion through body language and voice intonations.
I also excelled in Speech class while en route to earning my A.A. My success in that inspired me to join the Student Government Organization, where I presented oral reports for the Cultural Diversity Student Organization, of which I eventually became president.
After receiving my degree, I continued to do public performances with community and church theater.

Additional Skills

For years, while pursuing a career in acting, I also became very well versed with the technical side of media. I served as audio technician for my church for several years, operating a 32-channel sound board for live choir performances and sermons.
I also became the principal camera operator for that ministry's television broadcast. I eventually worked in various capacities, including video editor and, ultimately, media director. I then trained a crew of 13 participants on a number of duties, from camera operation to manning audio.
I currently work as a broadcast technician for an NBC-affiliated television station.
