Voice Description

My natural voice is a very strong, clear and confident. I have been told many times I should be in broadcasting so I can also do a very journalistic, professional sound.

For other projects like commercials, audiotapes or video games I can do more character like voice that are valley girl like or very nasal. I can do Italian, French and British accents. I am also very familiar with Italian in that I can read it with authenticity (I studied the language and know the basics of the language, but am not fluent at this time).
