My Voice Experience

I am currently working predominantly in commercial and voice over work with Starz agency in San Francisco. I really enjoy my work with voice overs for video games and would like to expand my career more in that direction. I am currently working on a Law and Order video game as Olivia Benson, the principle detective. But I receive auditions all the time for earthy, deeper, young-thirties articulate voices.
I really like voice over work--it's a way to "act" without having to care too much about what I look like. I enjoy the challenge of embodying the whole character in just a few sentences. I am really good at taking and following directions.

My Training

BA Middlebury College, VT in Theater
MFA The National Theater Conservatory in Denver, CO for Acting
Voice One classes in SF
Voice over training with Hilary Blair at The National Theater Conservatory
Starz agency has been truly instrumental in starting my career as a voice over artist. They supply coaching and auditions, and have worked in my interest on many projects.

My Studio Equipment

I currently have a basic at home studio.

Additional Skills

I am a stage actress, commercial actress, teacher, voice over artist and director. I know many facets of the acting field. I also have a special interest in health and humanitarian needs--so I notice that I have a particular interest in those commercials. I also love creating characters and am particularly good at stretching myself if I know the type of voice you are looking for.
