Voice Description

I would say all of the examples given: warm and deep, sexy and fun, as well as smooth and professional. Everyone says they love the sound of my speaking voice and I should have been a DJ or an announcer. Instead, I chose a career in singing and playing music live, as well as recording music and my singing voice in professional and home studios. I never sang anything that would hurt or affect my speaking or singing voice in a negative way, so my voice is still in great shape as a speaker, announcer and singer.

My Home Base

Rochester, New York, United States

Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

I can do a Northeastern USA Italian/American accent (Rocky, Godfather, etc.) without sounding exaggerated, or sounding exaggerated, if needed; I can also do a Texas accent (from moderate to heavy rural) adopted from my years living in Texas. I can do the "Rochesterian 'A' " accent: it's very nasal and upstate NY sounding.

My Voice Experience

All of my previous voice-over work has been at home - no professional accounts or contracts. I was signed with United Artist Records as a singer and songwriter in a Texas band called Calico - we recorded two albums in Nashville. As a live performer I developed my style of talking with an audience. I just happen to have a pleasant sounding speaking voice that from what women tell me is also very appealing and even sexy in a subtle way. I also have a somewhat good command of the English language and have a great respect for diction and proper word usage.

My Training

I was a journalism major in college and have taken a voice over class here in my hometown, Rochester, NY. I spent 20 years living and playing music and singing in the Dallas/Ft Worth area, recording two albums with United Artists Records. I have since continued performing and singing with various bands and acoustic trios in upstate NY. I did market research surveys for many years as a telephone interviewer with Harris Interactive here in Rochester and was constantly asked by respondents I was interviewing, if I'd ever had or considered a career in broadcasting or professional announcing or voice-overs? I would respectfully answer that I had and thanked them for their encouraging and kind words.

My Studio Equipment

I have recorded either in professional studios or home studios owned by musician friends. I have recording equipment in my house and on my PC.

Additional Skills

I have a wide variety of experience in using my voice: as a singer; MC for shows; telephone interviewer; consultant to friends over the phone who find my caring, smooth-sounding voice comforting; speaking on a microphone during my live music shows for over 20 years.
