Bruce Kramer

I am a classically trained singer (bass) who has combined a performing career with a second career in the corporate world. My business career taught me the importance of respecting colleagues, commitments and schedules, and my musical training taught me how to work toward a long-term goal. Since success in the VO industry requires a marriage of artistic and commercial interests, my background helps me deliver for clients.
