Voice Description

My voice is truly rich, and velvety smooth, with warm low overtones. My voice is idealy suited for many aspects of radio broadcasting. Stories love my voice. My intonation is as natural as breathing. Captivating any audience is a thrill for me and I respect the magic of it. With my Baritone vocal experience and other training I have the advantage of turning Mr smooth nice and mello into an evil Villan at the blink of a thought. I am of medium build but my voice can be larger than life. I am more than capable of speaking at a professional presentation or captivating the minds and ears of an audience for a commercial promo or infomercial. Live audience or imaginary, I like to know that I have your attention.
