1999-2002 I did vounteer work at the Recording For the Blind and Dyslexic where I read text books that were recorded on tape for the visually impaired. I also monitored the reading of others as they were being recorded.

My Training

Currently, I have a B.A. in Sociology from Huston-Tillotson Univeristy. This degree is beneficial to my voiceover career in that it helps me to understand people from different segments of society in order to be a more effective communicator. I recieved a minor in Biology which gives me the skills to understand scientific material and terminology when it comes to reading and explaining things that are technical.

In 2000 and 2002, I attended Lainie Frazier's voice acting class and recieved a certificate for excellence in radio voiceovers.

In 2003, I attended a workshop called "Using Your Voice For All It's Worth" conducted by Marrilee Shoplee at the University Of Texas at Austin this workshop delt with the many creative ways you can use your voice to its maximum potential.

Additional Skills

From 1/05-5/05 I worked for the non-profit organization Community Action Network where I gave presentations to other organizations on community issues such as: healthcare, education, juvenile delinquency, and homelessness.

From 1/04-8/06 I was appointed by one of the Austin city council members to serve on the City Of Austin Planning Commission where I was a member of an advisory board that provided information and counsel to the City Council. I also made recommendations to the Council regarding commercial and residential zoning policies.

All of this exposure has given me a broad range of experience in being able to read and interpret all kinds of material from basic to advanced and how to articulate it to a wide range of populations of different backgrounds.
