Proud LGBTQ+ Voice Actor 🏳️‍🌈

As a Narrator

I offer a compelling and evocative Voice, built on a foundation of Theatrical Training (B.A. Theatre) creating an immersive experience that transports the listener into your written world. I ensure every narration is a fully understood, authentic performance, ideal for a wide range of Literary genres. From Gothic Romance, and Whimsical Fantasy to science fiction and complex scientific documentaries.

Vocal Delivery: naturally gender-inclusive, rich, authoritative, and highly versatile. I move seamlessly from calm, gentle, intimate reads to high-stakes, dynamic action. And with years of vocal training I guarantee perfect diction, pacing and tone in every delivery.

Character Work & Accents: Consistent, compelling, identifiable and and complete characters. Extensive range of accents for intricate, international narratives and diverse cast requirements.

Repertoire includes: Regional American/Canadian, Regional British, Australian, Dutch, German, Russian, and French.

My love of literature shines through, bringing your words to life. My unique background as a physicist and signals processor gives me unparalleled technical authority and precision. I narrated several scientific Computer-Based Training (CBT) modules for government use. This experience ensures my delivery is not only precise but optimized for sustained instructional clarity, making me the top choice for complex scientific, engineering, and e-learning narration.

I am a proud LGBTQ voice actor ready to bring a versatile, nuanced, and authoritative voice to your next project.
