Voice Description

I can deliver anything from Mr. Nice Guy to car sellin' screamer.

As a bonus, I can give you characters such as Beavis and Butthead, Most of the South Park Gang, as well as several ethnic dialects.

If you want Carl from Sling Blade (Billy Bob's best performance) I've been told that if you close your eyes you don't know you're not watching the movie.

Some other voices include Napoleon and Kip Dynamite from the smash indie movie hit Napoleon Dynamite, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and so many more I can't even begin to name them all here. Please think of me when you are in need of an impersonation or dialect. My main demo displays several, including some dialects. Ask me if you don't hear or see it here and I'll gladly send you a personalized sample audition.

Bottom line is: I can pull off what you're looking for, and I can do it quickly.

My Voice Experience

I have twelve years of radio and television voiceover experience. I've done everything from jocking Country to Rock, News/Talk, hosted my own talk show, produced many others like Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Clark Howard, Neal Boortz, Ollie North and many more. As well as being a production/Imaging director most of my career. I know what it takes to produce a great commercial and my professionalism is second to none. You won't be disappointed. Don't be fooled by my resume, despite having worked in Talk Radio, I'm still hip and in the know about what's hot! :)

My Training

I learned to broadcast at the American Career Institute of Broadcasting. I have taken multiple classes in dialects, acting and inflection. I create by all of my senses making it easy for me to weave works of art with little direction other than my own sense! I worked in the news media as well for several years in my dealings with news/talk radio, so I am familiar with media production and journalism as well.

My Studio Equipment

Presonus Recording Interface at 96k, 24 Bit Digital. Shure SM7B Microphone, Electro-Voice RE27/ND microphone, MAC with 4 gigs of ram recording with Ableton Live.

Additional Skills

Whatever you need I am your voice talent. I do voiceovers, voice acting, characters and cartoon characters, voice mail (voicemail) greetings, messages on hold, radio and television audio production, recordings for audiobooks, narrative scripts and production. You name it, I can deliver it!

My studio is 100 percent digital quality and records at the highest digital bit rates possible. I can provide amazing sound for your project, or simply provide the raw voice for you or your production wizard to do the rest!
