My Voice Experience

I've done radio work and voice-overs for documentaries, plus voiceovers for the HBO0-powered site . I also do a weekly podcast about the Chicago Fire soccer team at Sportsfanpodcast.com

I am a lover of Shakespeare and act in his plays whenever I can. I've recently played Hamlet, Petruchio, and Dogberry in professional productions.

However, most of my performance experience is in improv and sketch comedy. I've performed under the banners of the iO Chicago, the Second City, and the Peoples Improv Theater.

Additional Skills

I can juggle. I can skate. I'm an expert skier. I can speak French - not well, but enough to get by.

I am also union-eligible for both SAG and AFTRA, and happy to join either or both.
