I entertain children, friends and family members with funny voices, sound effects and accents. I have been speaking with funny voices, accents and and making sound effects since I was a child. I also have been beatboxing since I was young. As a youth leader, I sometimes teach using funny voices. I have never recorded my voice in a studio or such, but I am more than willing to learn how to present myself and project my voice and such. I have a natural talent for manipulating my voice. I practice daily with voice manipulations and accents. I have taken several art classes through which I have learned to be creative and follow directions. I have been in several choirs for school and for church. I have taken a few public speaking classes, through which I've learned to speak loud and clear when I talk. I have taken one music class, in which I learned to play the Alto Saxophone. (I no longer play that instrument.) I am currently a college student. I am proficent in many computer programs. I own a Marshall MXL Studio One large diaphram microphone with an WavePad Sound Editor (Master's Edition) audio software.This software allows me to record music, voice and sound and tweak the audio. In addition, I use a set of professional DJ heaphones to be sure the sound of my recording is superb. I only have experience with family and friends. Manipulating my voice is what I have been doing and what I do. I do it to entertain others and myself and would be more than happy to get paid to do something that I love to do. I worked as a forklift operator in two different warehouses for a total of about one year. I worked as a fry cook for nearly six months at a local fast food restuarant. I also worked as a food server at my city's convention canter for a total of about three months.
