I can mimic with some accuracy most voices I hear. Old man, Russian Jew, Canadian, Hick or Hillbilly, the Movie Announcer Guy, the MoviePhone guy, Cheesy Game Show Host, Exaggerated French Accent, Accurate Spanish Accent, Ukrainian Accent, British Accent, and a variety of cartoon voices.

I have done live narration for the Moses Hogan song "Who Built the Ark" while a member of the PBU Chorale. I acted as the live voice of god at the 2004 City Year Greater Philadelphia Tribute Dinner honoring David Cohen. I sang the national anthem at the November 16 2003 Philadelphia Eagles game as a part of an octet. Some informal work with recreation centers and after school programs in character acting and improv. I have had a lot of voice and breathing training in vocal and choral performance. I have been singing all my life. I was a member of my college chorale and have had some voice lessons and personal training. I have lived in the Dominican Republic for a couple years as well and can read and pronounce Spanish precisely. I have a high-end computer with an Audigy sound processor and simple microphone and pop-filter setup. Using basic home equipment I have created an area that can add natural echo or deaden background and ambient noises as needed. My studies have been primarily in Social Work and Human and Cultural Diversity; I say that to say, that I do not see voiceovers as a full-time or primary job. I would like to use the voice that I have been given for something good and I would be willing to work for little to literally nothing if need be. I simply desire to use my skills and strengths to the best of my ability and I think voiceovers would be something I could do very well but that would challenge me in a new area.
