I am a Los Angeles based voice actor for commercial, animation/ anime, and video game work. My natural commercial reads have been described as warm, and inviting with a rhythm and youthful, deep resonance that invokes the imagery of laid back lofi beats. However the kid in me never left, and I always let him come out to play when I'm asked to summon an array of diverse, intense, light hearted, silly or serious, reads for character voiceover. My range in anime and animation is deep, which allowed me to play a huge gamut of characters, both serious and goofy. For example, I'm now most known as the english voice of the cocky and childish middle schooler "Roa Kassidy," in "Yu-Gi-Oh! Sevens," but I also portrayed the rash and violent devil "Malix" in the "Seduce Me: The Otome" Series. I even played block of chedder that could fire Street Fighter- style fireballs in "Bread Barbershop". It was dangerously cheesy. I also have a range of deeper tones useful for larger and older characters with strong projection and vocal presence, with larger than average builds or characters with strong sense of authority, I can add texture and rasp and smooth, calm tones that can be pushed further for more aggressive, older, classy, serious and/or confident protagonists, devilish antagonists, burly monsters or mysterious anti-heroes. At my higher ranges I perform voices perfect for squash and stretch animation and other productions that target younger audiences. From squeaky, cute, raspy, or soft voices for expressing quirky, timid, friendly or energetic characters like young teens, small creatures or magical talking animals, I can comfortably create them all. Accents range from neutral US American to US New England accent (NYC), US southern and African American / urban accent as well as English RP accent.
