Studied in San Diego with James Alburger for 2+ years in workshops and then in a weekly professional level copy workouts. Also did Advanced Voice Acting workshop with Marc Cashman in Los Angeles. I can easily apply my years of advanced professional training at Beverly Hills Playhouse to voice acting as well as my years of experience as a professional actor. As a note, I have a B.S. in Zoology from Penn State University, a V.M.D. (doctor of veterinary medicine) from University of Pennsylvania and over 30 years experience in Veterinary medicine which makes me very comfortable with technical jargon.

I have been a small animal veterinarian for over 30 years and am quite knowledgeable in medical science. I love literature and am a skilled stage and film actor/singer in dramatic and comedy rolls alike. I perform on stage, for TV and independent films.
I sang in 5 productions with the San Diego Comic Opera, and Sang in Evita at the Starlight Amphitheatre in San Diego as well. I am perfect for a wide range of projects from science, narrative to short fun comical quips and everything in between.
