Voice
Description -
While physically located in the San Francisco Bay Area, my voice has been heard in many places throughout the world.
I've provided broadcast-ready voice tracks for radio and television commercials, narrations, web videos, eLearning and animated and video game characters.
My basic vocal tone is warm and mid-range - great for caring or conversational spokesperson; Intelligent, knowledgeable and approachable - the helpful teaching expert for training needs or educational and technical narrations.
For your video games and animated adventures, I can provide countless characters to love or hate - from over-the-top mad scientists and caffeinated nerds to more focused and dangerous folk to populate the universe of your imagined world.
I regularly deliver quality audio on time or better, and am always happy to provide auditions specific to your script.
