My voice appears as a racist commentator in Ken Burns' Unforgivable Blackness: The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson. Most recently, my voice has appeared on MSNBC as a drug addict on Al Roker Reports: Generation Rx. I was used for the scratch tracks narration for multiple including TruTV's 'The Atocha Adventure' and Spike TV's 'DEA: Newark'. I have previously made several public service announcements for the New York regional charity site. I consistently volunteer reading books on tape for Reading for the Blind and Dyslexic I have trained under the expert tutelage of Susanna Dalton, a 30 year veteran of voice over work and premier performer both on and off camera. I regularly perform sketch and stand up comedy around New York City. I also perform in various online sketches. I have a degree in film production, make a portion of my living working as a video editor, and have taken multiple public speaking and storytelling courses. I have access to the same sound proof booth used by Al Roker to record all his VO reads for his various shows. As a video editor, I am well versed with working with voice over talent as well as producers. I try to utilize my knowledge from all three fields to present a product that works for everyone.
