On the conservative side, I can offer coast-to-coast American voices, variations on the British accent, and tons of characters and project-specific vocals that can be tailored, produced top-to-bottom, and quickly turned around in my personal studio.

I love to create characters and will adapt my style to whatever is thrown at me!

I have loved playing with impersonations, voices, and various types of acting and improvisation for as long as I can remember. After playing a few minor roles, and then taking on the starring role of Sweeney Todd during 2006 and 2007, I was sold. I did my first voice-over for a short film starring Allison Mack from Smallville where I played a radio interviewer - and now I am ready for more!! I have taken voice lessons with different teachers from the United States, Mexico, and Brazil. I also teach workshops and private lessons on singing, vocal instruments (trumpet, guitar, etc), beatbox, vocal percussion, and rhythm. -Macbook Pro with dual intel processor and 4GB of ram -Logic Pro 8 and Soundtrack Pro -MOTU AD/DA converters -Mojave Audio MA200 Condenser Microphone in my main studio with access to other condensers when needed. -Shure, Rode, Sennheiser, and Audix microphones -Presonus preamps -TC Electronics and DBX outboard gear -Alesis MKII monitors with Sennheiser, and Audio Technica Headphones
