You want unique? I can voice a Transexual and a high pitched squirrel at the drop of a hat. Really! After 25 years working in Cartoons, I know voices. I've worn a variety of hats in production (directing 95 produced TV episodes) and working on THE SIMPSONS, DISNEY'S PEPPER ANN, MICKEY MOUSE CLUB HOUSE, DORA THE EXPLORER and DUCKMAN to name a few productions. While drawing and directing in Hollywood, I studied with THE GROUNDLINGS and THEATER SPORTS Improv theater and currently write and perform sketch comedy with FRED WILLARD'S group THE MOHOS in Los Angeles. I know characters. Being an animator/actor/director, I can assess the needs for the character from many viewpoints... sometimes a subtle timing choice; a whisper, a sigh or a 'thrown' voice is what makes a character believable and likable. I've voiced an outgoing message for THE WRITER'S COMPUTER STORE and GRANMA PIG for Nickelodeon's OLIVIA. My demos (Animation and Commercial) demonstrate my versatility and copy writing abilities.

I am interested in books on tape and Games as well. I can perform smart, stupid, and characters with a deviated septum. Really. I love what I do and am innovative and my strength is improvisation and musical performance as well.
