I have been a performer ever since I ushered all my cousins into the living room to see a show I created. Since then I have acted professionally for over 30 years. I love scripts where I can determine a character and tell a story. -- I love acting; and voice work allows me to play numerous characters a week. It's like repertory theatre! *************************************************************************************** Quotes from clients: "It was great working with you. You were amazing at getting into character and you really brought it to life for us!
