Voice Description
I am British but spent many years in Australia and the United States, so my natural accent is influenced by all three - in that order - with British as the most prominent.
I have been told repeatedly that I have a "great" voice - very distinguished, very sexy. People are always drawn to it and comment on it - especially my phone voice.
I would describe my voice as a middle class British accent that fascinates the listener due to it's uniqueness. It is clean, smooth, calm, intelligent, professional, warm & sexy. it works well for anything from business presentations to voice overs for documentaries, commercials and various narrations.

My Voice Experience
In the 80's I traveled the world extensively, lecturing on the topic of self-discovery to both individuals as well as groups & public audiences. I traveled throughout Europe, Australia & Malaysia. This was where I first developed my "speaking" and "voice" skills.
I ended up marrying an Australian filmmaker/surfer dude and we both worked in "the TV biz" awhile before we decided to start our own production company.
We hired talent & crew for various documentaries & television specials that we produced. Sometimes we would hire ourselves! Why not.. saved the budget and was often the best choice...
I was occasionally called upon to be a model, online presenter or voice over for various projects. That continued into the 90's when we relocated to Los Angeles and worked for a local company that produced educational documentaries & hosted the A/V for live events worldwide.
My Training
My training & education specifically in voice overs is mostly based on experience. However, over the years I have attended various courses to further my education in the industry including:

Make-up for film/television at the Flagstaff College, Melbourne, Australia.
