Highlights
I'm a bilingual full-time voice actor with a sound that is warm, textured, luxurious, layered, friendly, wry at times, expressive, real, conversational and .... something more. I work in many genres of voiceover from commercials to long-form narrations to animation - telling the story you need told. Upscale commercial clients love the warmth and elegance of my tone which ranges from caring and intimate to enjoying the open road. My voice ranges from mid to the deeper end of the scale - especially for documentary narration - and for corporate narration or training projects my sound is that of the professional, an approachable, personable expert.
Did I mention I'm bilingual? Yes, native English, fluent Spanish and many clients love that I can voice their scripts in both languages! And I'm totally at ease with complex language, be it medical and technical terminology or ancient Aztec names.
Animation work is an entirely different animal - and yes, I do those too! I've played the parts of young boys and girls, their parents, grandparents AND pets all in the same script and my villains can send a chill down your spine.
My studio is equipped with ISDN - so I can work remotely in real time with any producer or director anywhere in the world.
