My Home Base

Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

I'm the voice you need from the United Kingdom. From Ireland or Scotland, cockney or George Harrison to the Oxford Professor. (I'll even throw in Australian)
I'm the voices from Maine to the Bronx and Manhattan, the midwest to Malibu and all voices of the south.
My voice is also from Mexico, Germany, France, Middle East, India, Italy and Japan...though I don't speak those languages. Speak globaly, act locally. (Or something like that!)

My Voice Experience

I started in small town radio in the mid 70's until I realized I'd need a "real job" to live on. As in all local broadcasting, I sold and wrote copy and did the voice work for our hometown sponsors, and voice donuts for national auto, furniture and food/restaurant accounts.
I've been an emcee for fashions shows, the narrative voice for a river rafting video and the "Storyteller" character for a live stage production.

My Training

I studied broadcasting and broadcast engineering in those 70's, and received a 1st Class FCC license...which was later de-regulated and no longer needed for the industry.
Over the years I have traveled with my "ears open". I love conversation, constantly listening for accents and dialects and have always worked at imitating them.

My Studio Equipment

I have digital recording equipment that I originally purchased for my musical interests. I use an Apple Mac with ProTools, a Marshall condensor mic through a Tube ART preamp. I also use an Alesis 3630 compressor and a BBE 462 sonic maximizer.

Additional Skills

I have worked in sales and customer service where I've always had to listen, relate, empathize and communicate with people. I've used these skills in manufacturing, banking and retail environments.
I love reading and movies.
My turn-ons are good food and travel.
My turn-offs are bad food and sitting home twittling my thumbs.
