Voice Description

I have a very sensual, warm, earthy voice that lends itself well to narrative voice over work but is flexiable enough for character work too.I am a bi-lingual speaker of both English and Afrikaans. I can do a Johannesburg accent and a "Boer" accent authentically as I grew up with these accents in South Africa.In addition I can of course record in my native tongue, Afrikaans.
