Smooth, with rich lower notes. Authoritative, but with a natural smile in the voice.
As a trained actor, with professional stage and screen experience, my voice is my most important tool.
Voice tutors during acting training included Vernon Thompson (Voice Consultant for Channel 4 News) and Stevie Rickard (National Theatre). I have had additional one-to-one training with David Gooderson (formerly of the BBC Radio Drama Company) and Barbara Houseman (formerly of the Royal Shakespeare Company).
My knowledge of voiceover has been further strengthened through training with Voiceover Kickstarter (Guy Michaels) and Gravy for the Brain (Hugh Edwards and Peter Dickson).
