I am passionate about the art of voice over, and bringing written copy to life. I like to approach each project from the core; first, knowing the target audience, product or subject then, supplying a unique and personal point of view and read options. My main goal is to provide high-quality, edited and finished voice tracks in a timely manner, and at reasonable rates. Other goals include growing my business so that I may in the future provide real-time recording from my home studio, along with music and background production. I am also willing to assist in copy writing and enjoy exploring various approaches, in order to provide reads and characterizations that really stand out and resonate with the targeted audience.

Other Experience
Experience Background
I have a varied background which brings with it a very deep well of experience. I like to bring my humor, drive and and enthusiasm for what I like to call the "Art of The Read" to all my projects.
I've worked as an actor, with training in Meisner Technique and improv, as well as a stage manager and sound/music designer for live theater. This is the experience and background which I draw upon to provide my clients with options and varied points of view when approaching any project.
I also spent quite a few years in the tradeshow exhibit industry as a Project Manager; running logistics as well as promotional applications for various pharmaceutical and medical device companies, which gives me a solid foundation of understanding this particular market.
I also work part time as a bartender, and have for many years. I have a killer recipe for a Manhattan, and am happy to share it.
