Voice Description

My voice works well for narrations, sexy and fun commercials, presentations, audio books and training videos. I do not have an accent, but I can comfortably speak a slow southern drwl like that of scarlett o'hara, or more of a redneck southern tone. I am popular for voicemail and PBX systems, and narration of medical text.
I have a very innocent child like voice I do for as well. I improvise wuite well as you give me a description of what you want, I can deliver it. I do not attempt to do foreign accents unless its in a humor context as my dialect is muddled and not authentic.

My Voice Experience

I have an excellent phone voice, so my initial work was setting up voicemail, then later it was commercials, narrations, training videos, and presentations, live speaking, jingles, emcee at various events, as well as narrations of children's stories (I have done those with an implied irish dialect.

My Training

My family has been in mass communications for 4 generations, and I have to give credit of my voice talent to my grandmother. She had a beautiful speaking voice, and it is believed people would call just to hear her speak. I grew up on her bended knee listening to her tones, and vocal stylings. Later, many thought that I was her,because my voice was much like hers. I am musically talented and I can pick up on music by ear. I started my work as favor to friends who didn't have the time or resources to outsource voice talent, and then my popularity grew from there. My live speaking engagements created 300% success rate in the capture of new business, and my audio narrations are in high demand because of my ability to comprehend and speak about complex terminology specifically in the healthcare industry. I have been in debate forums since my teen years.
