Training

2009-2010

Studied voice over under the direction of David Bourgeois, Brett Porter, John Gallogly, and Warren Garling of White Lake Music & Post/Voice Coaches in New York. My voiceover strengths include flexibility, strong narration/commercial presentation, creative voice over copy writing, and everything from 15 second voice over blips to full commercial/narration production. I bring a dedication to my work that is determined to achieve the highest level of success in every endeavor.
