I'm a 52 year old freelance voice over artist and did my first ever recording back in 2001 and have never looked back since. Progressively over the years, my experience and professionalism has seen me work in popular FM radio stations like Classic 105 FM and Capital FM both based in Nairobi.
I've also worked for the premier advertising agency in Kenya,SCANGROUP as well as "Supersonic Africa" and "Mojo Productions" voicing for both radio and television platforms. Commercials

After graduating from university I went into doing voice overs by chance having not studied it at all, but with an interest in the performing arts. To date I have attended only two workshops organised by the Voice Actors League of Kenya (VALK) of which I am a member. I currently tutor at a media school part time and have taken the opportunity to mentor young Kenyans keen to do voice over work. I have a BA Design degree and have worked in film and television since 1988 mainly as Art Director and Location Manager.
