When my interest in voiceover first began in the late 1990's i took voiceover classes at Del mar Media Arts, and was fortunate to be hired to do the voiceover for a television commercial for a Florida newspaper. My agent at the time, Marian Berzon was unable to find work for me, and eventually other occupational demands replaced the time I had had for auditions, etc. After my retirement from my primary employment in 2011, I began taking on contract and consulting work. My creating of content for trainings and eLearnings eventually lead to opportunities to record voiceover work for related eLearnings and I recorded three of these voiceovers under contract to the San Diego State University's School of Social Work-Academy for Professional Excellence. I am interested in finding voiceover work especially narration, books on tape, or any other voiceover employment.
