Voice Description

I'm the girl next door--hip, energetic, fun-loving and ready for action. Playful and quirky on one side with a "don't mess with me" voice of authority on the other side. I am a practical joker and have pulled pranks on many a friend with my tickle trunk of characters.

My repertoire is vast and includes a scattered Bronx gal (think of Audrey from Little Shop of Horrors---who I once played on stage); a middle aged South African lady who is as over the top as Dame Edna; a surfer / valley girl; an evil sleeping mole, high priestess, servant girl, hyper monkey and a variety of farm animals all of which I once voiced for an adventure video game. I am originally from the Canadian Maritimes and can project a good eastern accent that for those who aren't familiar with it, can be compared to Frances McDormand's character in Fargo.
I love animation but I also really enjoy the variety of projects on which I've worked which include documentaries like Canada's War In Color for CBC, Rome for Discovery HD, and a variety of corporate communications, commercials and on-air promotions. No matter what the script entails, the challenge and fun for me is bringing the listener into the copy.

When I am not working as a producer or director on some of the coolest productions, you'll find me outside doing anything sporty, or researching my next great adventure.
