Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

I can impersonate Dr. Claw from "Inspector Gadget" at while credits are rolling to conclude the show. He says "I'll get you next time Gadget...next time!". Curly from "The Three Stooges" as he, Larry and Moe try to flee from the villains, cops, or anyone who comes after them. I also do a good ticking impression of the "60 Minutes" stopwatch.

My Voice Experience

In high school, I was the narrator for a documentary about the Lynwood high jazz ensemble. I played keyboards for the band and hosted the segment whiched aired on a public access program "Lynwood Showcase". I presented my voiceover talent explaining what the ensemble was about and where the community may find our live performances. Unfortunately, this was the only voiceover talent that I've done since then. I've spent most of my career performing as a musician. I do enjoy doing so, but I'm hoping that someday someone will give me the opportunity to showcase my voiceover talent for television and radio as well as my music.

My Training

I have a bachelors degree in digital media arts, which required me to take music production. The course involved a media project where I participated in laying down my voiceover for my production "Scholastic Mack". I had to hire someone to do a voiceover for the meat part of the project, explaining the power of DVD Audio and 5.1. Surround sound. The D.M.A. program also showed me how to produce music for films. I supplied various piano/keyboard and vocal music for a colleague who produced a documentary on online dating. There was a couple who met online, constantly messaging one another intimately, married one another. I made an arrangement of the tune singing "Computer Love".

My Studio Equipment

I have easy access to peak, digital performer, and or A to D converter, Motu 896 Firewire, pre-amp, and a Rode NT microphone.

Additional Skills

I have perfect pitch for music. I also have the ability to identify a tone from any object instantly. This gift allows me to play anything I hear on the spot. Because I grew up watching television, I can play a variety of t.v. jingles from past to present. With this in mind, I can utilize my voiceover talent to accomodate the mood of the music. I also have the ability to draw t.v. logos or create a logo of some brand and make music for it.
