Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

I've been able to perform a variety of accents (British, indian, southern) and attitudes. I can be excited, sad, upset, monotone, peppy, relaxed, etc.

For fun, I will characterize various TV voices eg., Bart / Lisa, Marge Simpson. South Park - Cartman, Kyle, etc (I know, it's juvenile humor but many can relate). My most common stint is the 'operator' voice. "Thank you for calling..."

My Voice Experience

Through encouragement from friends, family and co-workers, I am now pursuing a professional part-time voiceover career. My experience has mainly been informal, as my voice was chosen for various greetings at my employers (Large companies). I would like to take my talent a step further as I truly believe I have an extraordinary talent.

Additional Skills

Throughout my entire professional career, I have often been informed that I have a great voice and should apply that talent outside of my standard 9-5 career.

I can do various impressions/ accents as well. Eg., Simpsons, South Park, the Operator, etc. It all started in good fun, but I'd like to be considered professionally. You will not be disappointed!
