Voice Description

I heart comedy!

My voice is dynamic and can range from sultry, deep and sophisticated to bubbly, light and young. I am strong at characters with accents: English, German, Russian, Irish, Spanish.... and linguistic quirks and exaggerations. My voice can be smooth and professional for presentation, training. I can speak Spanish on an intermediate level. I grew up in NY (Long Island) and have fun with those accents as well.

I sing strong mezzo soprano and high soprano.
