Deep/raspy action hero, NPR-style radio host, douchey frat guy, Tim Gunn impression, bossy teenager, out-of-breath sideline football announcer, up tight TV news correspondent, western cowboy, gay man, British accent, Southern US accent, New York accent, and beatboxer and/or vocal percussionist.

I was hired as the action hero voice for a brand new iPhone video game in 2011. Most of my past voice over experience has been creating a multitude of voices and characters for stage productions with Boom Kat Dance Theatre. I edited soundscapes, music, and voice overs together to create the entire aural experience for each show. As a beatboxer, I performed and recorded with the SoCal VoCals for 4 years, and then I performed on NBC's "The Sing Off" with the SoCals. I also beatboxed at Lincoln Center where my group won the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella.
