Voice Description

I have a warm baritone voice that is very versatile in range, pitch and timbre. Character voices and dialects come easily for me.
I can be improvisational for comedy and commercials and professional for commercials and narrations. My versatility also makes me a natural for voice matching.

My Training

BFA from the College of Santa Fe

My Studio Equipment

I have booked many of my jobs by auditioning from home with a Blue Microphone Snowball connected to an iMac and recording into Audacity. I find that, with minimal post-processing and a decent sampling rate, I can create MP3s that are near-studio quality.

Additional Skills

I have been an actor for many years in theater, television and film. I have appeared off-Broadway and was a recurring character on the television series "Judging Amy."

I have also worked in IT as end-user, network, and telephone support. As a result, I am very knowledgeable about computer-related topics. I am familiar with Macs, PCs, and Linux.

Payment Methods Accepted

• Personal checks, cashier's checks, or money orders in my local currency
• Wire transfers
