Voice Description

I have a quasi American - Australian accent. I range from the professional to character voices such as: housewife, grandma, comical, narrative, instructive and dry as in reading technical documents.

I don't speak different languages but can speak in the different dialects of Melbourne.

I love reading Children's Stories, news and directions.
International companies wishing to reach Australian consumers would find my voice an easy introduction tool.

On hold, voice over talent, greetings, acting and more will be considered.

My Voice Experience

I've used my voice all my life. Or better I've used a 'Voice' all my life!

Our family moved around the world ending up in Australia where I have lived for the last 40 years. Born in the US, I have a slight American accent but speak Aussie if that makes any sense!

I've had various jobs where the control of my voice dictated success or failure. Prison Officer, Youth Worker, Private Investigator, Process Server and don't forget Mom and Wife!

I have lived in Melbourne Victoria for the last seven years and have changed my speech accordingly - faster, little grammar and heaps of Moxy!

I have a great sense of humour and a quirky artistic nature which finds this type of work appealing.

My Training

Self taught - telemarketing, dooor - to - door sales, scout leader training, security training, state emergency training, red cross training, and now I'm teaching myself pod cast and other forms of promotions.
