My Voice Experience

Summer time is fun time, I just finished producing a Free Stylin' radio and TV campaign in Spanish for Moody Gardens beach attractions in Galveston, Texas featuring concerts, movies, butterfly displays and other attractions. Prior to this project, I voiced a recruiting video for a Christian organization which required an up-beat credible voice delivery. The client was extremely pleased with the final produced project. At present, I am currently the creative/voice talent for the Univision Network in Houston, Texas and although I am voicing everything from the station promos, automotive, and furniture stores, the most exciting is being able to be a part of promoting the 2010 World Cup starting mid June in South Africa. All said and done, I take on all voice and on camera projects with a passion.
