Over 11 years of reading to my kids has honed my storytelling ability and has helped me create a vast world of character voices.
13 years as a film, stage, and voice actor has given me a strong performance foundation and plenty of acting tools!
As a dialect coach, not only have I researched and coached various accents & dialects - I've also fine-tuned my own accents and learned acting skills from Award-winning actors I worked with (including: Gerard Butler, Helen Mirren, Russell Crowe and Jason Isaacs)
