My Voice Experience

Voiceover experience goes back 20 years, to working in radio.
I've done every kind of announcer read, character read etc, for every kind of radio spot.

Currently I do the same, but am based out of my home studio and am able to take on more voice work. I do some radio now, as well as TV spots, onhold recording, and am the narrator of "Facts of Fishing", a popular TV fishing show here in Canada.
