Dialects and accents have always come easy to me. Born and raised in North Dakota, where southern presidnets used to go to "lose" their southern accents. My father was born and raised in Alabama so, Southern American English is almost natural. Cali-boy "dude" accent easy as well. I speak fluent Italian and Sicilian with "Catanese" dialect.

I've given "Master of Ceremonies" readings for Military retirements. Also, as a military leader have had to project my voice over crowds of 250+ in an auditorium style setting with no use of a microphone. With the use of a microphone, sound quality is enhanced without use of electronics. Have been told on numerous occasions about inquiring toward this type of work by friends who say I sound like I should be in Radio as well as by a professional. So, I am here to try and don't know where to start to make a demo, professionally anyway. None. I do not have a studio of any kind.
