My Voice Experience

My career in voiceover work began while driving into work at a breastfeeding mothers' catalog. I was listening to my favorite morning show team when the sidekick announced she was leaving the show to finish her Ph.D. As soon as I got to my desk, I E-mailed the host a list of reasons why I thought I was a suitable replacement. He invited me in the next morning to give it a try and I was hired.

Since that day in 2000, I have voiced a number of different projects from sketch comedy for the morning show to narration for a marketing video of a girls' horseback riding camp. Here is a partial list of my most recent projects:

Narrator, SJ Ranch Riding Camp, marketing video, Ellington, CT

Narrator, ActNow, marketing video for program focused on building confidence and strong character in adolescent girls, Amherst, MA
