Voice Description

Thanks for taking the time to look at and listen to my profile. I look forward to working with you to capture exactly the kind voice you need to communicate your message.

Commercial Narrations - I have a voice that can go from intelligent and corporate friendly to hip/sexy/gritty to over the top car sales and monster truck pulls.

Commercial Characters and Animation - As a working comedian, I have very good comic timing for weird, offbeat characters including surfers, hippies, sarcastic, whiny, obnoxious, and more. I also have a lifelong love of villains and can cover creepy and gruff as well. Charming and fun straight characters are also in my repertoire.

Video Games - Narration and heroes are no problem. And my love of villains and monsters serves me well for everything from snide and haughty to gruff and moronic.

Audio Books - I love to do non-fiction and can offer a friendly and intelligent voice that gets to the heart of the authors message.

Documentary/Narration - I'm very comfortable with a variety of topics: history, science, finance, etc and can sound authoritative and warm.

Phone Service - Friendly and professional

My Voice Experience

Though I am somewhat new to voice over as a business, I've had a long career using my voice to convey a message as a music instructor, professional speaker, vocalist, and standup comedian.

I've done promos and bumpers for SnugRadio, Justice Radio, and StreetPrices.com

My Training

My mouth has been my career since I can remember, from being an orchestral flautist to a music instructor and professional speaker, to the singer in a rock band and a professional standup comedian. The purpose of my voice is always to accurately convey a message.

I have a BA in music from San Jose State University as well as acting training from Billie Sheppard's Actors Workshop at the San Jose Repertory Theater.

My performing career spans 19 years as a musician and vocalist and 8 years and an internationally touring standup comedian.

I've released 4 CDs and 4DVDs and am adept at recording and mixing audio.
