Voice Description

My voice fits well in the categories of narration, announcing, video gaming, and radio and television commercials.

It's naturally deep and very resonant, but there is a warmth and ease to my voice that is calming and yet keeps listeners alert and attentive.

It can be commanding and authoritative very easily, but I tend to use the lower, softer qualities to push poignant thoughts and ideas.

My range is fairly broad and allows me to reach levels necessary for character work that I have done throughout the years as a stage actor. It's very distinct and recognizable the moment you hear it.

My Voice Experience

Twenty years as a stage actor in Chicago and Montana doing everything from outdoor Shakespeare to singing Bertolt Brecht ala Tom Waits, has honed my voice into a well used tool.

Recently I have joined Midway Games in there "Mortal Kombat" video game franchise, adding voices to several characters in that series plus doing voices for one of their sports titles, "Blitz: The League."

I have done radio spots including one recently for a Stovetop stuffing ad here in Chicago. I've worked in radio both as a news announcer and on-air talent, KMMS FM and KGLT FM respectively and am very active in the Chicago theatre community.

My Training

I have BA degrees in both Theatre and Film production from Montana State University where voice was a focal point of my studies.

My three years in radio was instrumental in honing my on-air skills in delivery of text, extemporaneous speaking and timing.

Twenty years as an actor, with occasional workshops along the way

Additional Skills

Something that is interesting to note. Though I was born and raised in the States, I am of Persian descent and because of my looks I have been frequently cast in roles that require a Middle-Eastern dialect. This is to say that I have become specialized in this dialect and I find that in our industry and during these times it has come to be quite useful.
