I've always been told I should look into Voice Over work based on my training as a stage actor over the past 10 years. I was always fascinated watching "behind the scene" segments of animated cartoons and movies. Through years of watching both, I developed a love for the character voice and would always imitate the voice exactly as I heard it. I graduated from Worcester State University with a Degree in Visual and Performing Arts and have been a stage actor for the past 10 years. I was always told I should look into training to become a Voice Actor for cartoons or audiobooks! I was a deejay for our school's radio station. I completed training with "Gravy for the Brain" and then hired Jordan Rich of Chart Productions in Braintree, MA this past summer and completed my training coming away with a new confidence in my true voice and a complete Voice Over Demo package. I have my own home studio and use a Yeti Blue USB Mic with the mixer built into the microphone interface. I have audacity recording software for basic vocal recording as well as Presonus Studio One and GarageBand for more dynamic vocal quality. I have worked in customer service for most of my career, primarily over the phones. I'm familiar with the vocal dynamics needed to deliver satisfaction. Just recently I was asked by a theatre company I work for to record the messages for their auto attendant which provides a brief synopsis of each performance in the season.
