Elaine Mandaleris-Preddy

With 20 years of experience as a singer in a symphony chorus, I can apply my training to offer creative versatility as a voiceover talent. My radio experience in college along with 30 years of writing and editing experience prepared me for jobs such as my most recent voice over spots. I wrote and performed radio ads for one of the most popular events in the city, the Greek Festival. I graduated from the University of Virginia where I majored in English. One of my favorite extra-curricular activities was reading scripts and playing music as a radio personality at the college station. I have always loved to perform and have continued to do so after college. While a writer/editor for most of my career, I also enjoyed "performing" in front of a group as a communications workshop leader and singing in several groups, including in a symphony chorus that performed at the Kennedy Center and as well as other venues. I had had musical voice training early on, but in early 2012, I also completed VO training sessions at Such A Voice, where I honed my skills in delivering various types of scripts. None at this time. I am a skilled writer/editor with 30 years of experience in a variety of styles. Most recently, I wrote the scripts for the two radio ads that I performed for the Greek Festival.
