In the early to mid 1980's, I worked as weekend on-air personality for local Erie, PA Gannon College WERG, then Wichita Falls, Texas commercial radio stations KNIN-FM and KKQV-FM. Various voice over styles were used to create commercial advertisements and improvised characters when reading various live PSA and commercial announcements. My voiceover experience is self-taught since I was eight years old, copying cartoon voices, then progressing to copying various situation comedy and commercial character voices for fun. Professional performing experiences include singing and performing guitar and keyboards in many variety street bands since 1978 to the present. Some acting and voice lessons were acquired through my second undergraduate degree in music education (1998).
