Voice Description

I have a bass voice that I can stretch into three octaves not including my falsetto voice. My natural voice is deep and rich but I am a specialist in doing accents and creating new voices. I can make it gravely and gruff, or smoothe and pleasant to listen to. I can make my voice do what you need it to do.
Here is just a small sampling of the accents and voices that I can do. Scottish: comical brogue and conversational. English: Cambridge educated, street, British army officer, Liverpool, Beatles.

Russian: can make it sound as if I am from most Slavic countries. German: Funny fat German, artistic German, Military German. French: snotty artist, comedic servant. Italian: conversational, or over the top Mario like comedic. Middle Eastern. India: converstional or comedic. Japanese: Samuri or sumo comedic. Chinese: comedic. Mexican: comedic. Canadian: Comedic. Swedish: Comedic.
American- Southern: refined drawl, southern twang, Texas Redneck. Minnasota. Boston: like mayor Quimby on the Simpsons. New York. Californian Surfer.
Varied Voices- Pirate, Old Man, Old Prospector, Crazy Old Man, Gay Guy, Rich Blue Blood (Thurston Howell the Third), Gangster, Baptist Preacher, Gameshow Host, Drunk Man, Viking.
Impersonations- Darth Vader, Julia Childs, Jimmy Stuart, Scooby Doo, Movie Preview Guy, Godfather, Jack Nicholson, Barry White, James Brown, Clint Eastwood, Raoul Julia, Peter Faulk, The Smucker's guy, Kasey Cason, Sylvester Stalone, Arnold Schwarzenegger,

These are just a few of the accents and voices that I can do.

My Voice Experience

I grew up in a theatrical family. The type that every joke must be told with a comedic accent or it just hasn't been done right. From this training I have learned to make my voice do almost anything I want it to. That something a group like yours needs.
My most recent experience includes Narrating a Documentary for the Arizona Cattleman's Association to brief Congress. Two Radio advertisements for Brigham Young University's Housing Department and Legend's Grill. A Harry Potter Radio drama where I played Lucious Malfoy and several Death Eater's. I also narrated a documentary about the Green River for Outdoors Unlimited. I am great at what I do and I can help your company with whatever project it needs.

My Training

I have been mostly self taught but have been working on accents my whole life. I Have done several workshops by Christopher Miller, in Salt Lake City. I have also worked with Burke Rich in workshops and in developing new voices and abilities.

Additional Skills

I am the kind of person that likes to know at least a little about everything. I enjoy learning as is demonstrated by the fact that I am currently enrolled at Brigham Young University in their advertising program. I enjoy listening to books on tape and reading. I lived in Australia for several years and picked up the ability to play the digeridoo and use a boomerang. I love sports and I have played or will play any sport someone cares to show me. I have worked in manual labor and office settings. I am currently heading into the advertising field to develop advertisements as well as act in them. I have also sung in many choirs in my life including the Brigham Young University Men's Chorus, which is the largest collegiate Men's Chorus in the United States. I enjoy video games when I have the time to play them. I really love doing voiceovers and feel that it is as much fun as it is work. I am sure that my voice would be an asset to your company and hope that you consider me in your search. Thank you.
