My Voice Experience

I started singing jingles for recording studios when I was in high school. I have done many popular jingles that have sounded in several countries. I have done jingles for companies like coca cola, canal caracol, Johnson and Johnson. I also have worked with different song writters willing to sell songs to artists such as cristina aguilera and Thalía. I sing songs for very important prime time tv shows, realities, and soap operas. Two of the songs I recorded for television shows won first prize in National Television Awards.
Working in the recording studios with such frecuency, I started training and doing voiceovers and announcing for tv and radio commercials, english courses, phone recordings, and recordings for children. Though staying out of the unions, my voice has been used for a lot of products for women such as Dove, Nosotras, Herbal Essences, Channel, among others. I have also done voiceovers for commercials recorded in other languages that are bought and broadcasted in spanish. I have been hired by major television companies like RCN and Caracol in Colombia and for international companies such as Unilever to translate and produce commercials for tv and documentaries. I've also been the only voice for corporations offering phone greetings and internet services.

My Training

My voice over teacher is called René Figueroa. He has worked for major companies like BBC, and important colombian companies as well. I studied with him for some time and because I´m a singer, I already knew people working for tv and radio and started going to castings and practicing with my recording artist friends. I learned the basics with a magnificent teacher, and adquired very good abilities throughout experience and my natural talent. I am also trained to announce on camera.

My Studio Equipment

I have easy access to different recording studios, depending on the budget of the project.
For projects that don't need a super expensive sound quality , I record at home with protools using a mac, firewire, and a Rode NT1-A microphone.

Additional Skills

I am a professional translator. I can translate english to spanish and spanish to english with over 6 years of experience in engineering and general subjects.
I look good in camera and have been trained for this type of work as well.
