My Voice Experience

I've done VO work in the Middle East, Europe and in the UK, where we currently reside. Training has been through Rod Lucas Productions in London, and Edge Studios in New York.
Currently in voice over full-time, (as of June 2007) following many years in video/tv production, and missions, both in management and videography. Grew up in the American Midwest (Missouri), so have a warm neutral accent, further influenced by many years living overseas attempting to learn other languages!
I enjoy performing most types of voiceover, especially working with people and their scripts, understanding their desires/needs, and lending the right nuance to the spoken word.
Commercials/promos on tv in East Tenn, DJ tags/promos/commercials in Amsterdam, more commercials on UK national channel Setanta sports, and Autumn release of infomercial also on Setanta.
New to full-time voiceover, but I'm good, with strong work ethic, and work well with directors. Listen with your heart and your ears, and let's labour together!
