My Voice Experience

I cannot pretend to be anything other than new to voiceover work as such. However,my previous career was in Nursing and Teaching and as a senior lecturer I am very experienced at public speaking and presentation. My personal passion is for the English language and its proper status as a thing of beauty. I enjoy reciting poetry and monologues. I have worked in amateur dramatics and made a lot of recordings for teaching purposes when a Teacher. So the adventure starts here, today, with you. I'm a virgin - be gentle with me.
