Voice Description

My voice is very deep, warm, and has been described on many occasions as having a velvety texture to it. I can range from a very low pitch, which induces a raspy, gutteral effect, to a mid-tenor range, which has less overtones and is more clear. I am also able to speak with a Jackson Heights (Queens, NY) dialect in the accent of an Indian male, albeit still in English only. My voice is very even-toned by nature, but I am able to modulate it and brighten it as necessary. I have a very calming, soothing voice.

My Voice Experience

I have no prior experience that is voice-specific, but I acted on and off throughout grade school, middle school, and high school. I started performing in operas at the age of six, and moved on to plays when I was eleven. I stopped acting when I was sixteen. I use a voice recorder to keep personal notes to myself on a daily basis, and so am somewhat accustomed to training my voice to be heard by others.

My Training

I do not have any formal training in this area. I have been told that I have an extremely unique voice and I am looking to apply it. As I have indicated, I have some acting experience, and I also use a personal voice recorder on a daily basis. I was a journalism major in college, and I am currently writing a book, due in January of 2009, based on my own coverage of the status of reporting on the 2008 Presidential election, as well as the election itself.

Additional Skills

In September of 2007, I relocated to Chicago from Omaha, Nebraska. I did not know anybody in this city, and was subsequently forced to take the first step in meeting people in order to make new friends and networking connections. I have developed my interpersonal skills to a finely tuned degree, and am willing to meet any challenge without reservation. I often initiate conversations, and must be sure to speak with good diction. I am a friendly, approachable person who knows exactly how to articulate what it is I mean to express at any given moment.
