About

You're not looking for a typical voice actor, are you? This is the home of a voice that’s as smooth as a chocolate fountain on a Caribbean island… but even that's not very unique: everyone has a voice that suits something.

With me, it’s what’s behind the voice: a breadth of life EXPERIENCE you can't find anywhere else.

Are you looking for that “Mr. President— we need to go to DEFCON 2 now, sir”? Performed at just the right timbre, with just the right amount of worry, concern, and yes… excitement? Because after spending most of my adult life in the military as an active-duty naval officer, I actually know the differences between the DEFCONs (spoiler: 1 is higher than 2); your writer will provide the accuracy in the script, but I can uniquely provide the authenticity. I know what tone a Sergeant would use with a Lieutenant Commander (and why they might even be talking); I know the difference between a Gunny in basic training and a Gunny on the front lines; and I spent about 18 years in submarines, sooooo… you get the picture. I bring a depth of understanding to your text that you won’t find anywhere else!

How about some technical jargon? Did I mention that I’m an electrical engineer who worked in nuclear engineering for almost two decades? I actually know how to pronounce “turbine”! If you need your listener to care more about the subject being voiced than a potential distraction in how it’s articulated, you found the right performer. Sciency-nerd-types will bash apart a multisyllabic mispronunciation like an otter on its belly and completely miss the point of the training you paid good money to have produced… but I am that sciency-nerd-type so I already speak their language. Your message will always land where you’re aiming.

Other depths of experience include governmental hullabaloo (I’ve climbed “The Hill” and power-walked down Pennsylvania Ave through at least five pairs of shoes); connoisseur-focused products (think wine, tapas, cigars, scotch); and anything with an international cultural angle (I’ve visited almost 40 different countries and lived over-seas in Asia and Africa for years). I’ve also studied and speak multiple languages, from Korean, to Indonesian, to Spanish, which brings a much deeper understanding of cultures than an average tourist (language and culture are utterly inseparable and phenomenally fascinating to discover).

It’s what’s behind the words. Confident authenticity— guarantees your message is heard through the words.
