I'm re-entering the world over voice overs. In the late 1970's,In studied Film And Television acting at Weist- Barron in Toronto, Ontario, Canada and did numerous on camera commercial acting, small film roles, and an abundance of extra work as well as occasional voice over work. I have been performing my poetry in English to audiences in Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Victoria,New York and Warsaw over the past eight years.My poetry is dramatic,emotional,and provocative with irreverent humor at times.My most common feedback is that I don't sound like anyone else. Weist-Barron Studio Toronto, Ontario, Canada 1978. B.A. English Literature, Carleton University, Ottawa,Ontario, Canada. I am a Canadian Poet, published in literary journals in Canada, U.S.A.,Europe, and India based in Montreal,QC.,Canada. For the past 8 years, I have been presenting my poetry in Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Victoria, and New York. In 2008, I recorded a CD of 9 of my poems entitled 'Deviant Melody'. October 2009, I was invited to Warsaw, Poland as 'Feature Poet' (in English) to perform at 5 literary events over a two week period. Recordings of several performances can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com/rollingzenpoet 'Jovan's poetry has been ascribed to the lineage of symbolists and surrealists, with cascading, provocative images oscillating between vivid imagined landscapes and bitter doses of reality. His poetry brings paradoxes to light through a noble rebellion cross-hatched with irreverent humor.' Jovita Berlin I am also a professional pool player who has created a unique corporate team building process ( see www.rollingzen.com) with the game of billiards.To date,I have worked with over 100 major corporations across North America utilizing billiards as a metaphor for business and personal strategies.I invented a game I call 'Moxy' that's played in teams where participants are rewarded for team play.The events are usually held in upscale billiard halls. I begin with a motivational talk on the reasons for the get together describing it all through billiard strategies. Moreover, I worked with great success for 12 years at CIBC Wood Gundy,then Edward Jones Investments cold calling prospective clients for investment seminars(minimum of two per month of twenty people each).So successful in fact I was then asked to teach Investment Advisers how to be more effective on the phone.My effectiveness was largely based on my ability to mirror the tone of voice of whomever I called.
