My Voice Experience

I began my voice over career in Dallas, Texas in 1965 when I was selected as the national 'voice' of the Dodge Boys automotive campaign. I did these spots across the country for over 25 years. This led to a long and varied career recording local, regional and national spots for a myriad of advertisers. I've been a member of AFTRA and SAG since 1973. I'm currently the 'voice of Golden Chick
Restaurants in Texas'.

My Training

I began a radio career while in college at UT in Austin. While serving in the US Navy I built and managed an AFRS affiliate station near Manila, P.I. I worked as a DJ and talk show radio host on major Texas stations like KRLD Dallas and KPRC Houston.I've honed my voice-over skills thru years of experience doing commercials of all types.
