Voice Description

You can use my voice to effect people as I deliver the message. Whether I’m conveying an emotion or rallying an audience to motivate, the impact of the message is derived as much from how I naturally manipulate my voice as it does from the meaning of the words in the copy. I like to ask my clients what my voice needs to say and then manipulate my voice performance to clearly convey a message that hits the target.

Full of passion, my voice resonates with success and clarity. It can be used for presenting complex messages like describing the benefits of new technology products or simple messages like presenting a call to action to “take advantage of that true deal”. I am also a professional singer. (Tenor).

Having done record production and sound design on a professional basis for over fifteen years, I am able to quickly deliver based on your specifications. I am also a creative talent. Whether you need cool and sultry or energetic and bombastic I can do anything to catch the ear. I'll recite in a warm simple way or I am “The Closer”.

Always happy to spec your project, and in addition to my voice, I can quickly score any spot in my trusty integrated midi, digital recording studio.

Send me a script or an idea and allow me to show you that you’ve made a "sound" decision.

My Voice Experience

I enjoy applying my talents to the business of voice. My voice works. It’s working now on a variety of radio and TV spots that are currently being aired in major U.S. markets.

I'd been producing records and doing sound design when a bunch of voice over work started coming in a few years ago and I enjoy doing it. It's a fulfilling experience to work with so many talented and fun people.

I work with clients over the u.s in local markets. Everything from music stores to auto dealers. This month I have three adds running for three auto dealerships in Las Vegas, New York and Philidelphia.

I love to work at this trade.

Additional Skills

I've also spent some years of my career working for internet start ups like Netscape and webMethods in marketing and sales. I was employed by 5 "pre IPO" internet software companies from 1995 to 2001. Some did well, some failed miserably, none exists today, not even Netscape. My voice over/design work never goes away it's always there and hopefully growing

Voice over is art and business and that's what I have been trying to integrate into my life all along
