Voice Description

My Voice is very versatile. I can be warm, sexy, professional, straight forward and honest or goofy and fun. I've listened to many voice overs and I am different. I can do pretty much anything with my voice, just tell me what you want, and I'll make it happen. I'm also an actress and so have the ability to let you hear the emotion you can't see.

Additional Skills

I have many talents including singing, song writing, acting-of course, photography - though I can't imagine how that would apply. When I worked for the electric company I gave many classes and presentations to all levels of the company - though primarily to upper management. I have no fear and I'm not easily intimidated - but I can sound like both of those attributes apply to me. I'm not afraid of criticism and I learn quickly and take direction well.
