I've been performing voice overs, acting and broadcasting for 20 + years - providing me with a lot of how-to in virtually every area - performance, persuasian, copywriting, branding.
Began broadcasting and production-voicing commercials for Q107 Toronto and CITY TV/ MUCHMUSIC Toronto. Then began training with some of the best and working as an actor.
Moved to Vancouver, expanded into film ADR, animation and more film and TV dramatic roles.
Subsequent moves to Winnipeg, Calgary, Regina. Edmonton and now back on the west coast - Nanaimo! - a wealth of experience in many different markets.
Thanks for reading and listening.
