Voice Description

An experienced and highly professional voice artist with a mature and distinctive vocal style. Able to deliver a wide range of product/service messages or dramatic/comedic dialogue in a believable and compelling manner. As one former client said, "She has a smile in her voice".
A 'mature' female...that loves to talk (what a novel idea!), I am definitely the voice artist that your organization needs! There is a mature warmth to my voice however, I have the ability to sound much younger and to even have a child-like quality. In addition, I can do character/comic (witches, elves, etc) voices depending on the need. Also having hosted radio talk shows, medical, open talk & cooking, I can carry on conversation/voice over in a serious tone or more fun and upbeat per requirements of client needs.

My Voice Experience

Do you want a voice talent that is 'that voice'... very distinct for your product and yours alone? The voice of a mature woman that has been around the school of hard knocks and can think on her feet? Someone that doesn't whine and is believeable to sell your product?

My repetoire in hosting open talk shows, medical shows, cooking shows, religious, news and even being the 'key' person answering a national adhesive manufacturer's 800 phone line to educate customers on how to fix the floor that they just screwed up makes me the 'perfect' voice for your company.

I can be very compassionate to your customers' needs. My all around commercial experience (finding the client, writing script, producing/recording the voice)makes my expertise YOUR secret weapon over the competitor!!!

My Training

I attended the school of hard knocks. Working at a small AM station that specialized in talk radio... I learned every facet that ran that station. My clients were not happy unless I did the commercials from start to finish for them. They wanted my voice talent on the air selling their product/service. In addition, I am an active member of our local theatre group and have appeared in several comedies and Christmas 'radio' shows. We do these Christmas plays as fund raisers for various charity groups. It is all volunteer. I have done characters that stretched from Miss Electra in Gypsy to Marcie of Charlie Brown Fame to the narrator of The Christmas Carol. I enjoy letting the world share and enjoy my voice.

My Studio Equipment

PC

Have used the old turn the knob production. With reel to reel. Have worked in several digital studios.

Additional Skills

As noted above, I can do 'technical/training' scripts as I have spent 5 years coaching/helping end users with flooring installations over the phone.

I posess a talent for turning words into visual mental pictures. My radio audience and guests loved how I was able to simplify technical medical terms down to everyday words they could understand. Many listeners commented how they were able to tell without seeing (radio) what something looked, smelled or felt like because of my descriptive voice & inflections.

I would love my voice over career to include recording your book, infomercial, commercial, on hold messaging, or anything else that my voice would benefit your company. I know my voice talent will be an asset for you!! THANX!!!
