Voice Description

For commercials, I offer a funny and conversational tone which can range from a high pitched frazzled young mom to a classy hip urban professional to a seductive smokey alto tone. You will get a good sense of humor and wit through my delivery. Speed talking is one of my special skills, and I can deliver clear and tight diction at a rapid pace.

For audio book narration, I offer great character and acting interpretations, which is especially useful in the memoir/humor/satire genre and I also specialize in young adult and women's fiction.

I have a steady, confident delivery that can be used in industrials, presentations and recordings.

I have a wide vocal variety and can perform a wide range of characters, dialects, accents and regional speech patterns.

I am also a trained singer (soprano & alto range) and can perform jingles, tags and corporate identities.

I am not a native Spanish speaker, but I am proficient in conversational Spanish with no regional accent.
