Voice Description

For my entire post-pubescent life, people have told me I have a "radio voice". Additionally, I am aware that there is an international stereotype for Americans that holds that Americans are very monotone when they speak. So, I also try to use inflection in a much more colorful way than average Americans. Given I am an energetic person, the energy is very much audible in my voice. Therefore, my voice is suitable for whatever your needs may be-- whether you need a somber, sophisticated tone, or a more lively, engaging tone, my voice and my communication skills will deliver the sound you want.

Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

As a southerner, I am very fluent in the southern dialect-- however, this accent is not apparent in my voice in casual conversation- You would never know I was a southerner from the way I speak.

While I can detect accents from different northern regions and I can even distinguish between different British accents, I've never had a good enough reason to cultivate my imitations of them. I can hold a cockney accent very well, but northern North American and proper English accents are not my specialty, although I can imitate them somewhat.

I've also read enough African-American folk literature that I have a solid grasp on African-American dialect, as well.

My Voice Experience

I am only 22, and therefore, I have never had any voice over work.

However, I do have experience singing in a band.

My Training

I have had no relevant training or education in voice over work, although I have learned how to operate the majority of studio equipment.

My Studio Equipment

Being in a band, I do have some equipment left over and a room with proper acoustics. The only piece of equipment I believe anyone would be interested in is my condenser microphone.

Additional Skills

As I mentioned before, I have been in a band and I have ample experience with audio equipment. This includes, as I marked earlier, editing, mastering, and sound synthesis.
