All my life I have been a minor bird for accents, absorbing characters and being able to mimick them much to the amusement of friends and family. Predominantly I'm able to offer the following accents as part of my repetoire: Queens English,Traditional School Teacher English, Liverpool (or scouse), Northern English variants including Yorkshire and Manchester, Scottish variants, Northern Irish, Southern Irish,London, American, Australian.

It all began during a hair cut at a designer hair salon 21 years ago. The Director offered me the job as their Part-time receptionist due to having the perfect voice, which consequently helped me fund my college course. I even was requested to call clients friends to wish them a Happy Birthday as I sounded Warm, professional with a hint of sexy. During a period of being a nanny/au pair 3 years later in Switzerland,my French/Suisse neighbour requested I taught them English. His perception of the English language was that it was non comprehensive, horrible,unappealing. In other words he could not understand English until he had heard me ... what a lovely compliment!! Over the last fifteen years my career has offered me the opportunity to record phone messages for employers, voice over presentations and more recently e-learning courses. As my voice and personality is expressive, reading narration with varying voices for each character to children and adults is an utter pleasure. Within my career I have had on-going training relating to professional communication and presentation/sales and telephone skills. This has enabled me to confidently utilise my voice.
