Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

Have lived all over the world and the US. Need NW, Mid-West, Southern, or New England? Believable accents for British, French, German, and an over-the-top Indian or Asian accent. Character voices that fit animation, childrens books, and games: gruff, goofy, infectious guffaws and giggles! Deep drama, sexy, or sinister!

Have a specialty in technical, scientific, and medical terminology - it doesn't have to be dry, but it does have to be pronounced correctly!
