Voice Description

I am first and foremost an accomplished actor, and I pride myself in that all my voice overs are believable and interesting. I can quickly create a V/O that will serve the client, and leave a lasting impression. My vocal range is three full octaves, and my voice can do almost anything I ask it to do: heartfelt PSA's, rich documentary narrations, difficult industrial text, promos, quirky copy, sexy, cartoons, accents. I have great comedic timing for those wry spots that require irony and humour. I can do a clean voice read, or inject a rasp for youth and edge. I can play the spectrum from dumb, to sophisticated, to outrageous. Young to ancient. Accomplished at legals and talking books, with IVR and phone messaging a specialty. Name it - I'm up for the challenge! Let me help you sell your product with a read that will grab. I am easy going and take direction extremely well. Let's work together! I want to be your voice of choice.
