Voice Description

For commercials, I can be sassy and dry (yet still relatable), the mom with some attitude, or more sultry with a deeper resonance.

If you need a more serious tone for business applications (presentations, phone systems, etc.), that's up my alley as well.

And I enjoy the smooth, even tempo for narration - whether the need is for someone unobtrusive...or engaging.

My Voice Experience

While my 'formal' entry into the voice over industry is new, I have been recording for radio (promos and liners), phone systems, and business presentations for nearly 10 years. Mostly, these were done as favors or for companies I've worked with. (Brands include Virgin and CBS Radio.)

My Training

Most recently, I finished Nancy Wolfson's intensive, yet extremely rewarding, coursework. Prior to working with Nancy, my experience included online radio promos (liners), business narration, and phone systems.

My past experience includes vocal studies and performance as well as the business side of the music, advertising, and Internet industries.

And I'm a bit of a geek. So marrying the creativity of voice over performance with the tech-y nuances of the voice over business is a natural fit for me.

Additional Skills

It seems as if all of my previous experience has led to the voice over industry:

- Involvement from a young age in music and theater
- Internships in copy writing at advertising agencies
- Jobs in the music, Internet, and digital radio fields
- Overall interest in all things technical
