Voice Description

I consider my voice to be rather versatile in terms of pitch, tone, and timbre. I can voice a raspy older gentleman, a run-of-the-mill young adult, a middle-aged Frenchman--really I am willing to try anything.

I speak French as a second language--while I am not fluent, my reading comprehension is good and my speaking ability is entirely proficient. In English, I am capable of these accents:

-Eastern European/Russian
-Latin American/Mexican
-British Isles

In addition, I fancy myself quite the loud and versatile whistler, for what that's worth.

My Voice Experience

I once voiced four distinct characters for a performance piece. They were: a Canadian bartender, a middle-aged, low-voiced Inuit man speaking English, a senior Inuit man speaking Inuit, and a 1940s radio-style narrator. I also sang parts for both Inuit men and the Canadian bartender. Beyond that, I have performed vocal duties with local bands and am constantly testing the bounds of my voice, seeing where I can take it.

My Training

From a young age, I was interested in the things my voice could do. My brother nad I would put together "radio tapes" where we'd do radio DJ voices for a radio show we made up, using music from crummy cassettes our parents owned. A frequent penchant for karaoke bars and an affinity for trying out new voices in public has largely comprised my method.

While my vocal stylings (insofar as being a voice artist) are largely self-taught, I have had more institutionalized training in various other aspects of performance (acting, piano). Voice acting is something about which I am very passionate in any case.

Additional Skills

I play a wide variety of musical instruments (accordion, piano, ukulele, harmonica). I am a very good whistler. I am an award-winning filmmaker (look me up on IMDb). I have a wide variety of interests ranging from "just about everything" to "absolutely everything" and I love playing trivia games to a perhaps-unhealthy degree. I'm also not so bad with a yo-yo.
