For as long as I can remember, it has been my voice on the outgoing message in the house I grew up in, my first, second and third apartment after graduating college, and at every company where I have worked. People have always told me that my voice is interesting, flexible and pleasing to the ear.
I have lived in Chicago, New York and Los Angeles, am well read and well traveled and am a chameleon by nature. I love observing people and how they communicate with the world around them. I have been mimicking the way other people talk and act for as long as I can remember and believe me I have come into contact with some real characters!
Here in Los Angeles, I worked in development for film and television (see above comment about "characters") and have an excellent ear for dialogue and the way things should sound. I also am very good at addressing notes for that same reason.

I have easy access to a local studio.
I am very flexible, professional and possess an excellent work ethic. I am creative, have great writing skills and also a good sense of business.
I am also an avid self described foodie and have a wide range of knowledge of all things culinary. My dad sold real estate for 27 years so I have a good understanding about real estate and all of it's intricacies and have a mom and three aunts that were/still are in the medical profession so I have no trouble wrapping my mouth around medicalese. I also love dogs and have a natural talent for naming even the most obscure breeds.
