My Voice Experience

Videogames were the first voiceover jobs I landed, doing several characters for a series of Nancy Drew games. Everything from a Mexican archeologist to an out of work performance artist. I have also worked in radio for several years, voicing commercials and station promos of all varieties for years. On the air, I've also developed characters, accents and impressions on the fly, depending on the news of the day.

My Studio Equipment

I have studios available to me with full digital recording capabilities, and am well versed in Adobe Audition editing software.

I do have ISDN available on a very limited, pre-scheduled basis.

Additional Skills

I have long used my voice to provide for my family, mainly in radio, but also in internet and videogame production. From hosting stand-up comedy shows at a world-famous venue to working on the highest-rated local morning radio program in the U.S., I have honed my voice skills over several years.
