Voice Description

I can do many versatile voices for different types of projects. I can do a calm, professional voice that is warm and deep for narrations and presentations. I can do an over-the-top stereotype DJ voice or an enthusiastic infomercial-type voice. I can speak very rapidly or very slowly. I am an experienced singer with a wide range. I can do character voices for audio books. I spent 20+ years in computers and product marketing, so I am very comfortable with technical material.
