Voice Description

I have a deep, calming voice for narrations, documentaries, and informative dialogues. There are many character voices that I can perform. Some examples of my characters, range from Elmo, Valley girl, soulful African-American Woman, irate Asian-American to the "Leave It To Beaver" housewife, the hunchback Igor, and 1-900 sexpot. Currently, I am a personality for WFMX 107.9 FM and WCTB 93.5. I help market local businesses, as well as write and produce commercials for clients. Voices I have done for this radio house and others include: children's voices, political dialogue, accents of all types, elderly and more. I have worked behind and in front of the camera as an actress for 18+ years, on stage in front of a live audience for 20+ years, so no character or role is too much for me.

Additional Skills

The most important thing that clients should know about me is that I mean what I say (if I say I will send the spot at 8AM, it will be there on time), and I am a lot of fun to work with. I'm a bit of a perfectionist on my own time, and I don't stop working until it's what the client wants.
