I do a wide variety of voices - Smoky, Sexy, Deep, Breathy, Prudish, Dramatic and Scary female voices.

Quirky/cute character voices from very high to low. I can do a variety of edgy bizarre voices as well that can cross gender boundaries. Ages from very young to old.

I am a professional singer and can imitate a wide variety of styles from torch singing to country. I can sing pretty, in a childish manner or in a sultry style.
