I can use the "no accent" voice that I use for sports broadcasting and news anchoring, I can use my natural Southern accent, I have a Scottish accent that I dip into every now and again, I can do an Australian accent, English accent, New Zealand accent, Cockney accent, Canadian accent, French accent, German accent, etc.

I've never done any voice over work, per se, such as audio for commercials or promos, but I have been involved in broadcasting since 2003. I have been a sports anchor on a college television station's newscast, and I have also done some play-by-play commentary for both basketball teams, the softball team, and baseball team at Blackman High School in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. I also worked as a substitute color commentator for the school's ice hockey team. I also took news classes where we produced news packages, where we had to record audio, and set it to our video. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Electronic Media Communication-Journalism from Middle Tennessee State University in Murfreesboro. I worked as an intern at the Fox affiliate in Nashville, WZTV, in the Spring of 2008. They have an audio booth complete with a mixer as well as a tape deck to record audio on so it can be captured and used in producing packages for newscasts. I also have a friend who works at the major FM talk radio station in town, SuperTalk 99.7, and they, too, have an audio booth with mixer and tape deck, plus a computer with software that can edit soundbites. I have good writing skills. If you want me to do a voice over project, and need some help editing the copy, I can help you with that, too.
