My Voice Experience

I honestly have never had the opportunity to do what has always been fun to me, because I usually get a laugh from others and I love to laugh. I'm not sure if it has always been a "dream" of mine, but it is something I have always wanted to do. I was always the one called on to play pranks on others(still to this day!! LOL!. Anyone who is willing to take a chance on a college educated, single mom who loves to laugh but takes anything she does seriously will NOT regret taking a chance on me. It can really be a great success story:-)

Even as an adult(kind of embarrassed to admit), friends ask me to play pranks on the phone( you owe movies back to block busters or using an automated voice-you have collect phone calls, etc).
