Behringer compresor limmiter gate Aphex 230 voice channel "I am charming, oh so charming, it's alarming how charming I aaam"... At school before having any vocal training my voice seemed to carry from one end of the dining hall to the other, so nowadays to be "paid" for my voice rather than "punished for talking" is a happy turn around! I was a chef for a brief period (after the original chef walked out!) so I discovered a passion for cooking. I worked on a building site and discovered though the competition was fierce I had the loudest voice! I am more fish than human as I swim every day. I love dogs, horses pretty much all animals and used to ride at a circus school in Holland. I went to Art College before going to drama school and I continue to draw and paint both professionally (portraits) and for fun.
