Since my early days as an art director in advertising, clients have asked that I provide voice over for their radio spots. For many years, I said no, due to my lack of Voice over education and the time required to learn. When my schedule allowed me to, I began taking classes. Since I often write copy and direct the creative aspects of advertising, I come to the voice over world with a strong set of skills and an ability to not only follow direction but to direct myself.
Although I have done some corporate narration work, presentation videos and pitches for advertising to various clients using my voice, I consider myself new to the market.
