My Voice Experience

"I am an experienced, in-demand voice-over artist with many clients in the creative and corporate world. I own and operate a private, state-of-the-art recording studio in NYC, and I provide copywriting and editing services for many of my global voice-over clients. Voice-over and narration work was a natural extension to my theatre, vocal and performance-art work. I studied voice-overs with the top professional in the field: the agents and managers, Tara Boragine and Eileen Schelhorn, and Rich Bianco of On The Air Studios, NYC.
I spent several years in film and book narration, and I evolved into promos, ads, and corporate training. I am also the IVR and website voice of numerous American and European companies. Other recent clients include Spot-On Productions, DreamerVision Narration, Yale University, and SoundWalk Films."
