My first voice acting job was lip syncing to another actor's performance, and since then I have taken on many voice styles and many characters. I have done animation, on-camera and off-camera commercials, instructional audio, motion picture narration, spokes person spots and live theater.
I have performed leading roles in such stage productions as Our Town and Same Time Next Year, as well as numerous supporting roles in musical theater. I am trained as an operatic singer and was a rock n' roll lead singer on the show club circuit for 8 years.
I worked for several years as a script editor and development executive for Symphony pictures in Los Angeles, writing and pitching television movie ideas to the networks.
I am a former member in good standing of both SAG and AFTRA.

I work fast, take direction well and have a very versatile voice. I am highly creative, which leads to interesting choices, and have been told that I often bring a unique meter to my readings.
Along with my entertainment experience, I have giving many business presentations in my other life; from small gatherings of executives to large 300 person sales teams.
