Voice Description

Some people cast me when they want a warm, easy-going voice. Others value me as a voice actor who can also sell an idea or product. My mid-range voice can be pushed to ridiculous extemes for outrageous characters, or dialed back to tell a simple story in a "real person" style.

I've been deemed "honest", "caring", "funny", "serious, but without too much drama".

If you don't hear what you're after on the Commercial Demo, check the Character, Cartoon, or Narration cuts. Or go to my other website at www.voices2go.com for additional examples.

Accents, Impersonations, Characters and Dialects

I am not a dialectician. I can do what I refer to as "cartoon accents": various American Southern types, New York/New Jersey for tough guys/cabbies/, western, British (both upper and lower crust), Irish, Spanish/Latin, German (espcially for nutty professors and phychiatrists), Italian, French, Slavic, cultured, continental...even alien.

If you're doing something fun and just need some audio "shorthand", I can fill the part.

My Voice Experience

Years of experience in Radio Production. Years more experience as a freelance voice talent based in my own studio, Imaginator Creative Productions / voices2go.com.

I've done hundreds of commercials for radio and tv (straight and comic), corporate narration, animation, web-based training, talking toys, message-on-hold, and even a couple of movies as a guest Muppeteer.

My Training

Trained "in the trenches", I've learned by doing...and through the generosity of voice talent who've shared what they could along the way. Various awards and loads of repeat clients indicate that a good amount of that "training" worked. Am currently a student of Nancy Wolfson.
