Voice Description

My speciality is corporate audio and video because my sound is authoritative and confident, and friendly.

I have performed for audio and video programs presented by Johnson &Johnson, Verizon, AT&T, Financial Planning Online, and Watson Pharmaceuticals.

I am a trained actor so I can communicate in a direct and intelligent way that works well for news magazine formats and documentaries, but I'm versatile enough to assume the role of an intelligent, fun-loving, sexy, sensual and playful woman who lives a fabulous life and loves to shop, travel, and experience life to the fullest. I've been told I sound (at times) like Samantha on Sex & The City.
