My Voice Experience

20 years experience in radio copywriting and production, plus over 13 years experience as freelance voiceover talent for such clients as Alltel, AT&T, Taco Bell, Golden Eagle Casino and many others. Combined, that means quick, quality production that doesn't sound like a radio announcer (unless you want it to, of course)!

My Training

I've trained with Patrick Fraley, Cindy Akers, Dan O'Day, Susan Berkely and others. I hold a BS in Communications from ASU, occasionally dabble in stage acting and I sing in various choirs and choruses in my area.

My Studio Equipment

My studio is based around Adobe Audition 3.0. My mics include RE-20's and a Rode NT-2.

Additional Skills

In addition to voiceover talent, I also offer fast turnaround copywriting and full-service Adobe Audition audio production, with quick 24-hour turnaround on MP3 or CD Overnight. Custom voiceover, narration and voicemail/on hold demos are available immediately,
