My Voice Experience
My experience comes from being a stage actor. I started stage early in life. My High School director talked always of the importance of projecting the voice and annunciating our words for the people in the back row. From that learned to develop my diaphragm and vocal technique. I was the school radio announcer for 3 years. I work in customer service which I believe has made me an effective communicator. Being able to use the inflection in my voice to calm customers and make them feel at ease.
