BIOGRAPHY
I came to voiceover from a corporate background - where I was asked to record some eLearning narrations because 'I had a nice voice'. And I got hooked! I'm based in Chester in the north-west of the UK, where I have a pro home-studio. My natural voice is neutral British with Northern flat vowels. RP, Liverpool or North Welsh accents on request! I am also a classically trained singer and music teacher, so I'm happy to discuss adding music to your words.
