Additional Skills

I have the ability to know what people want and give it to them. I have been in sales most of my life before I started doing voice overs. In all those years I always knew that no matter what you were selling, you had to sell "you" to them before they would buy anything else. I can relate to any type of personality, and this helps me in my voice over career, in that I can put myself in the listeners place and the character's place and give the exact performance needed. I am hardworking, dedicated, dependable, honest, and reliable. I am a perfectionist, so I will work on whatever I do until it's perfect. I will only deliver the best quality work.
