I have been doing voice-over non-professionally on YouTube since 2009 by performing as characters for fictional projects of other users, creating voice impression demo reels for my personal YouTube page, and narrating presentation-based projects for my classmates. I have recorded one commercial for AccountServ: Certified Public Accountants and have played the role of Nightingale in the audiodrama "Ruffled", produced by Michaela Laws. I have taken acting classes from middle school to college level, as well as a class specifically about using the voice in media-based and live situations.
