My Voice Experience

Here are some of my client references:

I have two lists for voice talent; “Some of the Time, and “GO TO!” Kim’s at the top of the “GO TO” list. She can turn it around in no time flat, and come back with more variations and possibilities then I imagined.
Besides having a voice that naturally draws your ear, Kim understands that the sell isn’t always in the words. It’s in the emotion.

Kim is great to work with and has a super quick turn around time. We were looking for someone to deliver a sexy read to compliment Joe Kelly’s giant voice and she came through. Now our station really sounds bigger than life! Thanks! Kim…the station totally has a new feel thanks to you! It really does sound fantastic!

market." "Overall, Kim does a great job in providing voiceovers for us and does it with a smile in her voice!"

I have found Kim to be what we call in the business a "total professional". She is quick to respond to the given project's requirements and always provides three or more versions or flavours to choose from. The various clients she has voiced for me have been completely happy with her work. I am happy to recommend Kim to many of my colleagues in the commercial production business!
