Voice Description
I'm known as The Mic Guy for good reason -- behind the microphone, I deliver a natural, engaging, "real guy" sound.
You might cast me as your friendly neighbor next door, your goofy big brother, your befuddled dad, your blustery boss, your compassionate doctor or pharmacist, or your knowledgeable banker, Realtor, or broker.
You'll hear a genuine warmth and intelligence in my sound, as well as a sense of humor than ranges from wry and dry to razor-sharp.
In video games, I've played characters ranging from everyday people to warriors and fantasy creatures.
