If you want southern, then I am your girl. Through skits in my backyard as a child, community theatre, acting and improv classes and work with Narration and Documentaries I have learned how to use my voice to produce tenderness, humor, intelligence, and energy. I have lived in the south for most of my life and always been noted for my voice (even southerners remark on how lovey my voice is). My mother is an intelligent debutant and my father was a bit more rough around the edges but sly and smart as a fox and he taught me that you need to be able to talk to all kinds of people from the old men that hang out at the gas station to the president of the bank. That was one of the most important things he taught me because by being able to communicate in different circumstances has benefitted me, enlightened me and gotten me out of tight spots. I usually don't toot my horn but I know that I need to do it for you to notice me. If you want anything southern then I am your girl, lady, or woman of the world.

I have a BA in Studio Art from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and concentrated in Photography and Video at The School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Ma. During my time in college I had to learn to articulate in a professional, articulate and convincing manner during significant critiques. This was no small feat when I had to do this with a sweet southern accent and many Bostonians wanted to just pat me on the head but I did it and they regarded me with respect. I was quite pleased and became aware of how I could use my voice. I love reading and especially to an audience ever since a young age. I have a ten year old daughter and started reading to her the day we brought her home from the hospital. She is a great reader now and I am very proud. Another love I have is gardening. I have owned my own gardening landscaping business and greenhouse in Asheville NC. I have worked several jobs from answering phones for an insurance company to pouring beers at festivals and public speaking. I am quick to learn what an audience wants from me. I have loads of energy and determination to get the job done how my employers want and I enjoy doing it.
