Experience
I have spent nearly 15 years in radio production, during which time, I wrote, voiced, and/or produced many commercials, promos, and programs. So, not only can I voice your project, for an additional, yet nominal fee, I can also assist with the writing, editing and production side as well.
When I'm not in front of a microphone, I'm either in an acting class, participating in a webinar, or on set in front of a camera. In addition to being a voiceover artist, I am also an on-camera actor. I've shot several webisodes for a film project, a short film, and I am in production on a web series. I have also been the sound recordist/boom operator for a short film and a national promotional video for USA Cares.
Credentials
Education
My training in voiceover began with Nancy Wolfson, and continued with Debbie Munro. Nancy is one of the foremost voiceover coaches in the United States, and Debbie is not only one of Canada's much sought after voice actors, she is also a voiceover coach servicing North America.
I have also studied the art of commercial copywriting with the radio broadcast industry's advertising guru, Dan O'Day. I obtained the designation of Certified Professional Commercial Copywriter through the Radio Advertising Bureau, a ceritfication course created by Mr. O'Day in conjunction with the RAB.
My other training includes on-camera acting: scene study, monologues, and commercial auditioning. I regularly attend workshops and seminars on various acting subjects... from improvisation and stage acting to voiceover and acting for TV/film.
