Voice Description

Naturally, I have a sarcastic tone to my voice with a wide register, from deep and breathy to high and whiney. It lends for many character voices, even experimental dialects.

Commercially, my natural voice seems to get me a lot of attention. Dry and small is a specialty.

Young and Friendly for presentations.

Outrageous characters for podcasts and other independent projects.

My Voice Experience

My first job was in my hometown of Kansas City, MO. It was a radio spot for a streetball tournament in 1993 called Hoops Hysteria. They needed a Dennis Leary type with a real edge and sarcasm. I carved out a small career providing that character on many radio spots and on a short lived local morning radio show. As part of a comedy troupe in KC, we experimented with many mediums including original sketches we produced and modeled after old time radio shows titled "Chronicles of War" I featured many different character voices.

In Chicago, I participated in a ton of different projects. Most were industrial and for internal office use, for companies like Gatorade, Sara Lee, Barton Brands Worldwide, Eli Lilly and Pfizer.

An incredible opportunity happened for me when I portrayed a pivotal character named Michael in the nationally broadcast Left Behind: Audio drama series.

In Las Vegas, I provided voices for various commercial and corporate jobs.

In LA, I submit myself daily, booking many video game voices of late. I appear as a guest voice on the very popular improvised comedy audio podcast SuperEgo. I also voice the irreverent Jimmy Hecht character on the animated series 'Bare With Me'.
I also produce my own podcasts.
