Voice Description

I have a warm voice, the woman with the answers, but can add a quirky character with a great humor to it. . My character voices cross most age groups and I do great accents...from Brooklynese to Russian.
I have recently discovered a world of character voices. I love creating these loveable, dastardly, quirky personalities. I also write great copy for them. Let me bring them to life for you.
