I am the primary voice-over talent for a leading pro-audio manufacturing company since 2009. I write and edit the scripts, then record and mix the VO for all marketing videos, as well as all product tutorial and company historical videos. My VO training has been mainly through experience with my work in the professional audio and music industry. I've done hundreds of VO recordings, all with a knowledge of — and access to — different microphones, preamplifiers, compressors, software DAWs, and audio plug-ins. I have backgrounds in English studies and copywriting that aid in script production for professional VO results. I am also experienced in live performance and studio recordings of singing and/or playing guitar, bass, and tenor banjo.

I am efficient and expedient in my turnaround, and meet my deadlines. I am always willing to go the extra distance to achieve the desired result. I feel comfortable jumping into a project and confident in my execution, but also willing to listen to feedback, and open to new approaches.
