I am a music & radio producer with over 12 year's experience in radio presenting, audio production, voice over, audio recording & editing, sound design and remixing. I have recently self produced and published a fiction/comedy/variety podcast using several character voices. I enjoy being clear and formal, but also love a spoof/parody and opportunity to experiment. 
I have a reputation for a great radio voice, both with my natural, cool and calm tone, to all the fun of weird, gravelly and dramatic characters, so now I want to offer this experience to other projects. I have a degree in Creative Music Technology, and have received various training from radio institutions including the BBC and Ujima 98 FM. After graduating, I volunteered at Bristol’s Ujima 98 FM, eventually hosting a specialist music show regularly for over 5 years. I voiced many adverts for the station and local organisations along the way. 
 Currently I produce and present a monthly show on Bristol's Noods Radio, selecting new music and making original experimental voice pieces. I am also working on a second series of my "Limbo Calling" podcast. I have conducted many interviews over the years, and am confident with microphone technique as well as the production of radio jingles, trailers, menus etc. I have always enjoyed playing around with speaking in character, and enjoy improvising with different voices, especially exaggerating voice over tropes. 
Now I believe I have enough experience and confidence in all these foundations to use my voice to explore new vocal adventures in the industry.
