My Voice Experience

I narrate 3 short videos for an international non-profit each month. The videos are used to both instruct and recruit members. The scripts include many proper names which are unfamiliar to me (Hindi, Arabic, etc). Having taken both French and Chinese (and studied opera in several languages) really helps me master new words quickly - even when the sounds are completely new to me!

Despite the extra effort - or perhaps because of it - I'm most satified after completing one of these videos. I'm very patient and will work with you to the deliver the product you need - whether a narration or commercial!
