My diverse background helps me bring life to scripts. I am originally trained as an engineer and currently work as a Product & Marketing Director for a large travel tech company. My last international vacation was to Pakistan where we traveled from Islamabad to the China border. In addition to travel, I am an ensemble singer and am experimenting with improv. I am an Edge Studio Approved Voice Talent.
Vocal Profile
Describing a voice in words can be difficult. Characteristics include bass-baritone pitch with a warm, approachable, story-telling style with an occasional hint of fry. Some describe me as having a melodic timbre. I do project an element of presence. Even though I am not, many listen to me and think I am physically, a big man. One thing I do not sound like – the stereotypical television announcer – my enunciation has softer edges. Age-wise, I generally come across as if I am in my mid-30s to late 50s. Given my singing background, I find it natural to make vocal adjustments when directed.
Personas
My personas include good-guy, advisor, coach, mentor, knowledgeable explainer, father, friendly big guy, and subject matter expert.
Studio
My studio includes Cubase (including VST Dynamics and a FabFilter Pro-DS plugin) with a Steinberg UR12, an Audio Technica AT4050 microphone. I support directed sessions using Skype, ipDTL, and Source Connect. Additionally, I use Clatter & Din for larger projects.
