Voice description

Warm, friendly and intelligent, my versatile voice is great for a range of projects ranging from upbeat, cheery moderate/heavy sell or children's books with character voices, to serious documentaries on environmental issues or politics. The clarity of my voice also makes it an excellent choice for voice mail and on hold phone messages.
