I started voicing by accident when my wife dragged me into her studio to read in a male part. I loved it and I haven't looked back! I started with radio commercials, then branched out into coporate and e-learning work. Recent corporate clients include Jaguar Land Rover, Coca-Cola, Borland Software and Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs (the British IRS) I have a Master's degree in English Literature from the University of London. After graduation I worked for many years and journalist and then a drama scriptwriter for television (mostly The Bill and Casualty). All this taught me a great deal about how to interpret a text - and also how to take direction. I did my voice-over training at A1 Vox in London.

Before that I worked as an actor and then a journalist. I believe that this experience gives me a fully rounded view of any script and an ability to deliver what you need.
