My Voice Experience
Once upon a time, I studied my brains out, not once, but twice to take and pass the challenging official FCC test licensing me to broadcast in these United States of America. That led me down the path to a frenzy of overnight stardom and radio fame, which finally grew into afternoon drive gigs, where anyone who has ever worked in radio will affirm – you must wear many hats.
Before I knew it, the roller coaster of life started to go way.too.fast.com.

And after all that education, I've come back to do what I love to do...using my voice. Doing voice-overs and voice-acting gives me a chance to share a God-given talent that has been hiding in cubicles in corporate America for too long.
My Studio Equipment
I have friends who have studios I can use for the time being. I have several friends with ISDN’s, who have been gracious enough to offer studio time whenever I need it.
So, my talent is on loan from God.
Equipment is at my disposal.
My BSIT better prove to be useful in audio engineering so I can continue to pay back those horrific student loans!
Additional Skills
I've been called "direct-able” and “just plain outstanding."
Clients have said, "YES! YOU GET IT! This is the voice we've been looking for!"
I've done educational narrations, national promo’s, commercials. I have over thirteen years radio and television production experience.
