I was at my brothers housewarming party the other day and was approached because a complete stranger had recognized my voice. This alone made my night, my week! I knew that I was really starting to come into my element and now want to continue that path with more and more types of work!
My late father always wanted to be a radio DJ, and I was therefore raised on records and a fisher price microphone. Today I'm fullfiling "our" dream as a night personality for a rock station in NJ. I have worked up the ladder to land my current position, and am now trying to branch out and continue to strive for new goals.
I do a lot of spots for my radio station and have done work for advertising companies in NJ as well including Bud club calendars, Ford dealerships, eye doctors, testimonials, gyms, concerts, etc. I am currently trying to expand my talent and background and use this gift of a voice and determination and get a variety of work!
Magarino Ford mercury, Bud Bar Blitz, Eye Classique, Anytime Fitness, Supertans, etc.
I majored in communication at Rutgers University with a Minor in theatre and visual arts. The arts have always been in my life and I'm continuously trying new areas of it.
I have been dancing and acting my entire life which led me to a career path in radio. I get to do the best of both worlds !!!! Act and play music! I am extremely passionate about music and love to learn about what's going on and express my love for my job through my voice.
My experience lies in vocal training through my childhood singing and competing in chorus, to a college degree in the field of communication, to dancing, acting, production, radio, and now my latest passion: voice work!

I am a very dedicated person to anything I strive for. I have tried almost every job I can think of and have managed to land a full time job doing what I want to do! I go to bed and wake up happy every day of my life and my goal is to continue to do so, while expanding my work.
I have a large background in acting and dance which helped make me who I am..and led me to use those characteristics behind the scenes!
I love life and feel very strong about reaching for your goals. I have met one of mine by becoming a full time disc jockey, and am now setting new paths and light at being a professional voice over artist. I promise to strive and give 110% to any client who thinks I make a great match! I'm also currently working on my voice with the proper training and building acoustic performances with another musician.
ballroom dance, visual arts, radio, acting, living!
