Voice Description

Smooth and "nice" for soft sell commercials(eg current Tourism NSW commercials shown worldwide and on Internet site).

Clear pronunciation with light and shade for documentary narrations and book readings; can slip in and out of characters as I am reading; accessible but not patronizing for children's shows (eg animated series "Milly and Molly", currently in production)

Serious and believable for corporate or lifestyle/reality productions(eg Australian version of "Popstars" 2000 - 2002)

Welsh-born with ability to go from "Ocker" aussie voice to refined upper-class British, as well as many regional British accents, Kiwi and South African etc

Standard voice is warm, accent-neutral

Additional Skills

Have bachelors degree in Mathematics (BSc) and Masters in Science and Society (critical analysis of Science and Technology)

Experience as cab driver, waiter, computer programmer have given me insights and understanding of a diverse range of skills and people.

Also write poetry, take photographs and create 3d pieces from found objects.

Highly overeducated, so can handle supposedly difficult pronunciations with ease (particularly medical reads, having grown up in a medical household and magnificently failed 2nd year Medicine!)
