My Voice Experience

I've been actively working in the Spanish-Language voice-over industry since 2003. I started by performing commercials for local NYC radio, then I was casted for a National TV spot for AFLAC for the Spanish-Language market (2005). After that I did numerous radio spots for Macdonald's, NY Lottery, FDNY, NYPD, Dodge, etc (2005-PRESENT). Most recently, I performed as a Spanish speaking squirrel in a TV spot for the popular HONDA Element commercials, and as a pedestrian in the hugely successful video game Grand Theft Auto 4 from Rockstar Games.

My Training

I've been a NY stage performer for over 10 years and I learned my technique through my mentor Manuel Herrera, who performs, teaches and produces Spanish-Language voice-over on a regular basis. I currently work as a producer and engineer in a production company that makes audio books, which is where I got the opportunity sharpen my technique.
