I’m a professional male voice actor with a deep, rich bass-baritone voice that can be commanding and authoritative, warm and trustworthy, or relaxed and conversational. My voice is especially well suited for corporate narration, eLearning, documentaries, commercials, audiobooks, video narration, animation, video games and broadcast-style announcing. Before moving into voiceover, I spent more than a decade working in corporate finance and data analytics, where I regularly presented complex information and led Excel and analytics workshops. That experience helps me understand technical, financial and business scripts quickly—and communicate them in a way that sounds clear, natural and engaging rather than overly formal. I take direction well, enjoy collaborating with clients and can bring anything from quiet sincerity to dry humor and larger-than-life energy when a project calls for it. I record from a professional home studio using an Sennheiser MKH 416-P48, Apollo Twin X Duo and Adobe Audition. Live-directed sessions are available through Source-Connect, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet or phone. Expect clean, broadcast-ready audio, responsive communication and dependable turnaround—typically in less than 24 hours. I look forward to learning about your project and helping you find the right read.
