Voice Description

My voice can be warm and genuine, sexy and fun, smart or nerdy, childish- just depending on the role whether I make my voice sound more breathy or nasal or change the pitch.

As a singer, I am a classically trained soprano with a three octave range which means I can tweak my voice for many different sounds. for example: classical, jazz, pop, country
Can also sing in my character voices.

My Voice Experience

I have been a singer since a very early age and with that came different opportunities to record different songs through out the years. In College I had the opportunity to record an original rock musical- The Raven. I have always been interested in a voice over career. The further I get into my acting career, the more I want to record and use my vocal talent. I am constantly working on my characterizations and different voices. Recently, in Dec. 2011 I had the opportunity to record for a musical short film The Cinderella Effect, that will hit the film festival circuit this year(2012).
