I have been involved with local Sydney radio for the past 2 years as a presenter. Here I have recorded commercials for local clientèle for station sponsors.
I hold a diploma in Advertising and Marketing and was selected to attend AWARD school in Sydney for Australian writers and art directors. I previously was employed as a copywriter for an above the line advertising agency in Sydney (Singleton Ogilvy & Mather) writing copy for radio.
After being made redundant I realised my passion was on the other side of the glass so to speak!
This passion lead me to being mentored by voice coaches such as James Hagan, Deborah Bauer and Abbe Holmes.
I also have attended acting and presenting courses at Australian Film TV and Radio School in Sydney, Radio training and presenting at 2RRRFM in Sydney which has honed my skills in character voices.
I have a complete home studio setup. I use a Rode NT2A Mic with M-Audio Mobile Pre-Amp plus Pro-tools.
I am also a professional Master of Ceremonies and event host and have been for the past 5 years contacted to host all types of events and conventions such as weddings, corporate seminars, fund raisers to trivia shows.
Being a public speaker and MC had lead me to further expanding my skills as a VO artist.
I also am involved in presenting a breakfast show at 2RRR radio in Sydney. Both VO and radio are different but still incorporate similar skill sets which works well for me.
