I have heard it said that voice over people don't like people with radio experience. Well, I am not ashamed of my radio career and voice work. A vocally driven medium such as radio cannot simply be cast aside simply because of certain preconceived notions. I don't puke into the mic (unless it's a cheesy voice that is needed) and I understand the concept of pitch, tone and pacing just as well as any other out there. I have over twenty years of on-air work, voice over and audio editing, copy writing, and production. I love what I do and I still strive to make the next production better than the last. I have a strong work ethic and can run on a tight schedule, and I am also flexible and patient enough to make sure I'm giving the client exactly what he or she wants when the project is finished. When you hire me, you will not be disappointed.
Musical training since grade school, majored in broadcasting and communication at Jones College in Jacksonville, FL. Wrote for the "Harbinger" my high school newspaper in Kaukauna, WI. I also dabbled in acting and drama there. I have eight years experience as an on-air personality, twenty years experience in commercial production, have done play-by-play football broadcasts for a local high school the past four years, and above all else - I listen. I pay attention to voice work that catches my ear, whether it be a movie trailer featuring the late great Don LaFontaine, or a commercial with Mike Rowe, I feel that part of any voice talent is to listen as well as vocalize.
I have my own home studio with an older model Compaq Evo that was recently upgraded in RAM memory and a 500GB hard drive, run by a Pentium 4 2Ghz processor. My audio editing software is Adobe Audition 3.0, and my primary microphone is a CAD U-37 USB mic. With the audio processing software, I can make this mic sound like a much more expensive Nuemann or Electro Voice. I have received many compliments from clients on the overall sound of my completed projects. I have an extensive music and sound effect library that I have accumulated over the years as well.
