BIOGRAPHY
I have an acting and performance background and a history of working in the corporate field as well as training and teaching. I am curious nearly to a fault. When I was younger, aside from playing piano, I was constantly taking things apart and digging into how they worked. Today, it has not changed much. When I'm not auditioning or practicing, I'm immersed in various voice over industries: One may usually find me watching documentaries, going through learning modules on Masterclass.com, Udemy, Kaggle, or LinkedIn (I'm currently learning my way around Python for fun), listening to podcasts or audiobooks, or gaming online (role playing games). I am passionate about voice over and enjoy corporate narration, e-learning, documentaries, and audiobooks. I bring that enthusiasm and experience to my voice over work. In addition, I am pleasant, easy to work with, and cheerful. My voice has been described as sunny, sweet, smart, sassy, articulate, and sometimes with a sprinkle of Southern comfort.
