Voice Description

I provide diverse options for voiceovers which include a smooth and professional read, an animated story teller, a sexy voice, excited and fun and sassy. My main focus is a woman in her 20's and 30's but could easily stretch into her early 40's. I would be a good fit for the single girl, to a mom, to a business professional and can also speak difficult words that would involve medications or medical information.
