I have had years of experience using my voice for many projects; from competing in oral interpretation contests as a teenager, to singing our National Anthem to large crowds as an adult. My most recent projects are:
* :30 podcast ad for the speaker's main business
* 10,000 (+) word narration for a Singapore vitamin company
* My authentic laugh was used in a laughter meditation audio book
* On-hold messaging & IVR for a local business
I am astutely aware of what businesses are looking for when it comes to corporate narration and lengthy compliance reads, as well helping them with content writing for websites and social media platforms. I have also lent my voice to businesses for their on-hold messaging and their IVR’s. I have been a keynote speaker for conferences.
I am proud of my volunteer work; most notably, I was recently voted in as Director of Communications for a local cancer-fundraising non-profit.
I graduated with an Associate's Degree in Horticulture, Landscape Design, and Turf Management. 25+ years in horticulture, customer service, sales, marketing and management are what gave me the drive, motivation, and confidence to open my own VO business: TAK1 Productions. I am ready to get to work for whatever project you had in mind!
I have been coached & mentored by Bo Barker with VO Concierge, Dave Stuck with Radio Garage, and Kimberly Busbee. My voice has been described as grounded, warm, confident, fun, outgoing, experienced, personable; a friendly expert. My coaches and mentors say that I listen well, thrive on constructive criticism and implement feedback immediately.
