Credentials

Education

I studied professionally with the Marla Kirban Voiceover Studio in New York City. I have had private coachings with renowned Animation specialist and coach Jeannie Elias and completed a six week intensive voice-over course with Nina Pratt (casting director at Grey Advertising) and Linda Weaver (agent at Access Talent).
I graduated in 2001 from the Baldwin-Wallace Conservatory of Music with a bachelor of music in musical theatre. I have sung professionally in national tours, off-Broadway and regional theatre productions and even internationally for Disney in Tokyo Japan. I've sung the national anthem for the Cleveland Indians, private concerts for several senators in the Midwest and multiple industrials. I placed third in a collegiate comedic improvisation contest and have studied and performed with the Tokyo Comedy Club. I've placed at the state level in numerous singing and acting competitions and have been named Best Female Vocalist three times for the ADA competition which encompasses Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana and Kentucky.
