I have primarily done commercial voice-over work for radio and television. However, if you are looking for something more unique, then my background as an actor and on-air talent may be just what you need. Dramatic readings, character acting, and narration are all within my ability and I am ready to put my voice to work on your project. Raised in the North East. Schooled in the Mid West. Live in the Pacific North West. I have BA in Theater Arts and have acted in and directed a number of performances. While studying voice control I was able to shed my natural New England dialect and now speak in a clean, generic dialect with the ability to quickly pick up and emulate most North American dialects. I have been doing broadcast radio for over 20 years, nearly 17 of those years in the professional sector and the past 10 in the Sacramento, CA vicinity as an on air talent. I have also done work in the television medium both writing copy for and voicing commercials. I use a digital studio running on a PC. For recording and editing I use Adobe Audition by choice, but can use other software if needed. Current home studio microphone is the MXL 990 but I also have access to high quality professional microphones and equipment. The majority of my career has hinged on deadlines. I do not miss them. I want to be your first choice, but if you are in a pinch and need quick turnaround then give me an opportunity to show you why I OUGHT TO be your first choice.
