I began my voice acting journey as a way to put my character work to...well...work! I am jam packed with a ton of character voices that I use daily to amuse my children, dazzle my DnD players, and annoy my wife and friends. Along the way I discovered that I had a knack for commercial and corporate narration as well. The "conversational" read comes fairly easy to me and can apply it to a breadth of genres from corporate B2B messaging to streaming/podcast advertisements. Telling a story is the ultimate form of communication and I am most at home when painting vivid work pictures with my talk-box.
I have been complimented many times on my range specifically, with the ability to stretch both my vocal age and my emotional presentations!
Opleiding
I began my training with The Voice Actors studio in early 2021. A 4-week intro course led to numerous private coaching sessions with Melissa Moats (the owner) and many of their coaching staff. Since the beginning of my journey I have privately coached with 10 active and professional caliber coaches, and many more coaches in group classes and sessions. I continue to coach regularly to keep my talents sharp, relevant, and competitive.
A list of the coaches I have worked with: Brad Hyland, Dave Walsh, Anne Ganguzza, Joyce Castellanos, Mark Graue, Scott Burns, Melissa Moats, Chad Letts, Jason Rooney, Brent Mukai.
Ervaring
I have worked with Broadway Video, The Hoover Institution at Stanford University, MoneyGram, and RVR Horse Rescue. I was recently nominated for a 2023 Voice Arts Award under the Tutelage of Anne Ganguzza, for our work on my Corporate Narration Demo!
Specifieke vaardigheden
I am technically adept at my DAW of choice (Reaper). As far as singing goes I can hold a tune fairly well, but that would probably be a question for someone who has to listen to me!
