CREDITS
SKILLS
| Voiceover | I trained at Stairway Academia in Madrid, Spain for a year and a half before beginning to book voiceover work. Since then I have garnered experience in narration (corporate + dramatic), animation, gaming, commercial, documentary, explainer, e-Learning, and audio guides. Currently based in Frankfurt, Germany, I work with local studios and via my acoustically-treated home studio. |
| Stage acting | Since moving to Frankfurt, I have become involved with the classical theater ensemble, Shakespeare Frankfurt. Since 2018, I have performed in the following plays: TCC-416 (TCC-416; live voice acting), An Enemy of the People (mob member), and Othello (Bianca). In September, I will be performing the lead role of Huck Finn in a production of Huckleberry Finn at The English Theater in Frankfurt. |
| Stage managing | I interim-stage managed for the production of Othello in 2018-2019 and stage managed full time for the 2019 summer production of Macbeth in the annual Shakespeare in the Garden produced by Shakespeare Frankfurt at the Botanical Gardens in Frankfurt, Germany. |

TRAINING
| Voiceover Training with Robin Armstrong (Skype) | I trained with Robin 1-on-1 via Skype from September 2019 to July 2020. |
| Voiceover Training at Stairway Academia (Madrid, Spain) | I began training with Rocío Garralda Sanz at Stairway Academia in Madrid, Spain in the summer of 2016. During our training, we focused on the various genres of voiceover (narration, commercial, documentary, e-Learning, audiobooks, characters, accents, ages, etc.), as well as vocal technique and breath work. I trained with Rocío for a total of 2 years, at the end of which we produced various demos for me to begin my career with. |
