My Voice Experience

I am a cartoon character. In fact, I have been a lot of cartoons. I've worked as a stage performer for Disney for the last 5 years and I have played many of their world famous characters. I've had to sing and sometimes talk like them. But the funny thing is, my real voice sounds nothing like a cartoon. It is deep and crackly, like a nice warm fire. I haven't done much recorded voice over work other than some automated phone messages for Disney Cruise Line and a few promos for the Rosie O'Donnell Show.

My Training

I have a BFA in Theatre from New York University. While in college, I studied at Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute where I took speech and diction classes with John VanWyden and vocal performance with Jan Douglas. I also studied voice overs with Drew Birns at Stonestreet Film and Television Workshop.
