My Voice Experience

What HAVEN'T I done in my 20 years in media, starting with television, with the bulk of my experience in RADIO (hurrah for theatre of the mind! Makes for a more versatile voice actress).
I record from both my home studio in Raleigh, NC, and the studio at WRAL-FM, the radio station where I work, so I get to do a huge variety of project and character type.
As a freelance voice talent, I do a lot of voiceovers for both commercials and promotional spots for clients and radio stations across the country. As a member of The Barter Bank, I'm able to work with radio stations and voiceover agencies internationally as well.
I also do a lot of on-hold messaging for a variety of clients through Alternate Access, a phone and communications solutions company, and in-theatre advertising voiceovers across the country, through Steve Goff
I also do medical recordings for both on-hold messaging and in-office promotional videos predominantly through Lance Nickens and Steve Goff.
During ski season, I voice a daily `ski report' for the Southeastern Ski Association that is aired by subscriber stations in 8 states.

I'm an on-air personality, as well as commercial voice-talent and producer. I have vocal training as a singer and actress, and have attended several International Creative Radio and Production Summits, weekend-long workshops hosted by Dan O'Day, with speakers culled from the top of the industry including Dick Orkin and Christine Coyle.
