I've provided narrative, promotional, and hosting vocals for podcasters and ad agencies for over 8 years now. Previous clients include Staples.com, Richard L. Sanders (author), Monochrome LLC's "Contagion" video game, GSN Online, Porter Novelli, Deliver Magazine, and Bigelow Tea.
As part of the podcasting boom of the early 2000's, I did extensive voice work for independent, hobbyist, and professional producers. I also produced my own sci-fi themed music podcast featuring robot voices, sound effects, and alien characters.
B.A. Music, Whitworth University - Emphasis in composition, also studied theater, improv, creative writing, poetry, as well as continuing my private voice and piano instruction. Graduated with honors in 2001.

Turnaround Time
Depends on amount of material to read, typically under 48 hours.
I have an extensive musical background, earning my primary living as a performing/recording artist. I can create custom music for jobs, just ask for rates. I also have experience with technology and programming and can read both medical and tech copy with ease.
As I own my own studio, I can typically fulfill voice jobs in less than 48 hours if I'm not on tour– and I will not accept a job until I can give the client an ETA that's acceptable to them.
