German/Austrian accent patterned after Arnold Schwarzenegger.

For my kids, I do Sesame Street characters such as: Cookie Monster, Elmo, Grover, Bert and Ernie.

Additional Skills

I have a broad knowledge base from my education and professional experiences ranging from agriculture to theology. I am a trained public speaker with over five years of professional experience. The people I served appreciated my conversational style coupled with a strong voice for easy listening.

I used my broad swath of knowledge to write a weekly column in three local newspapers. With that venture, I took Second Place in the Local Columnist category for the 2007 Wisconsin Better Newspaper Contest.
