My Voice Experience

How many voice talents do you now that actually hunted pirates before? I did in 2006!

As long as I can remember I've also been told I do great impressions and I should be a voice over talent.

I am very lucky to have one of those natural theater voices.

I've done some ads and radio spots over the years and really love this doing this. My last job was for a Yellow Pages spot for Metro Pest Control Inc in New York City. They were extremely happy with my work and asked me if I'd do more spots with them.

My Training

I recently completed voice coaching with John Gallogly, Senior Creative Director with VoiceCoaches, Creative Voice Development Group LLC.

I've done voicemails, greetings, targeted spots, hosting events, spokesperson spots, and I even was asked by a commanding officer of a Spruance Class Destroyer to be the voice and tourguide during their family day cruise. This was a fantastic gig where I had to speak for over 5 hours over the ship's sound system.

Both crewmembers and their dependents commenting what a great speaking voice. It really added to the day.

My Studio Equipment

I have access to a full working studio in Farfax, VA.
