Voice Description

My voice can be described as a Morgan Freeman, James Earl Jone type timbre. I have a range from mid average male adult to an father knows best very mature and serious senior male. I have a very deep and clean voice that would be ideal for narrations, presentations, movie trailers and theater work. I have been told for many years that I should be on the radio or using my voice for television because of the depth of timbre and thickness of my voice.
