Voice Description

My voice is pleasant and melodious, lyrical, soothing, and very succinct, specifically enunciating each word, which lends well to books on tape, educational projects, documentaries, and public service announcements.

I have a range of strictly professional for on-hold voice messaging to slow and low for Lunesta commercials or bedtime stories to playful and sexy for narrations and commercials.

It is a smooth, flowing, gentle voice that works well for many types of projects. I can perform the "Valley Girl" voice (teen) through the young adult/middle age adult range.
