I feel I truly excel at long-form narration. A more conversational, versus "sales" approach. I've gotten several 30,000+ word audiobooks recorded and have received praise from the Rights Holders with the selection of me for their future projects. So really anything that does not require fitting a lot of words into a small amount of time. My voice simply cannot be rushed. So if a project requires various voice inflections (storyteller) over a period of 300 words or more, I find that to be my sweet spot.

 Formación

I started my career at the age of 18. I loved music recording, but for whatever reason I was blessed with a resonate almost accent-neutral voice. When Producers heard me during the sessions talking on the Takes, they moved me to behind the microphone, and I’ve been there ever since.

I pursued developing my career by getting a college degree in Radio, Television and Film and that set me up for a decades long career in Broadcasting and News.

I’ve done a little bit of everything: Historical Documentaries; Science Explainer Narrations; Movie Trailers; straight up Advertising; and lately I’ve been pulled into Voice Acting in movie roles, video games and audiobooks.

In a typical day I spend 4-6 hours in my Home Studio, recording and editing finals for projects, submitting new auditions, writing and rewriting for the spoken word. (Nothing gets me more excited than when I find a script that has been written for the Spoken Word. It just flows so well) In short, I do this a lot and I do it for a living. And I think I’m pretty good at it.

I’ve done long-form and short-form. I have a professional in-home studio working on a variety of Mac products (hardware and software) as well as a selection of condenser microphones I’ve collected over the years.

I really enjoy what I do, and I think that shows in my work.

 Experiencia

I've voiced internal videos for Coca-Cola, Coors and Modelo. I've voiced museum pieces for the Washington Monument and the Shiloh Civil War Battlefield. I've acted in audio podcasts in both Los Angeles and London. On the more industrial side, I've worked with Allison Transmissions and WeatherTech. Lately I've narrated AudioBook regarding the French author Albert Camus and a Survival Guide for Veterans suffering from PTSD.
