Neutral British Accent Can adopt/imitate certain regional accents and work on characterizations for eboooks or video games.

My voice has been used for a variety of different projects including several corporate videos for different industries. I have also provided background voices in the movie "Justin and the Knights of Valour", as well as playing the "digital" role of English teacher in a Spanish film "Todos Están Muertos", released in Spain in May 2014. I also participate as voice in off in a new TV series to be aired firstly in Spain in October 2014, co-produced by the BBC. From 2008 to 2010, I actively participated in 3 different weekly radio programmes, lending my voice to jingles, sweepers, etc., as well as occasionally presenting some programmes in Spanish. I also do a variety of e-learning jobs for some important companies, through an agency. 9 months radio and narration course (2006)- Comunicación y Práctica, Madrid, Spain.(course in Spanish) 3 months phonetics and narration course (2007) - Comunicación y Práctica, Madrid, Spain (course in Spanish). 6 months voiceover (dubbing) course (from English into Spanish) with Fernando Acaso Academy (2008) 1 month audiovisual translation course (2011), (from English into Spanish), Cálamo & Cran, Madrid, Spain. 1 month intensive refresher voiceover (dubbing) course (2011)with Fernando Acaso Academy. I have a home studio which allows me to produce very acceptable audio files. I use a RODE NT1A microphone and a Motu Ultralite mk3 sound card and record etc., with Adobe Audition. Since I live in Spain, I have often found that the texts I receive to narrate in English are very low quality and need correction or re-translation. Therefore I offer my clients a translation service of texts to be recorded at a reasonable rate. I also work as a general freelance translator when I am not recording. I previously worked in the pharmaceutical industry for 21 years. The company was specialized in allergy and immunology which has afforded me an excellent background in the medical field, especially regarding biology, allergy, allergens, and immunology, so medical narration presents no problem for me.
