I'm an Engineering Lead at Gulfstream Aerospace. Our team engineers and designs the beautiful interiors of the G700 Business Aircraft. As a Team Lead I am required to have excellent communication skills to accomplish problems. I regularly give presentations and guide engineers through technical issues. I also grew up in a family of firefighters and storytellers, and was once a volunteer firefighter myself for 13 years. In order to get your point across, story out, or joke heard, you had to have good comedic timing, voice inflection, and be able to captivate your audience. With these skills I want to put them to use in the world of Voice Acting and Narration. I am emerging voice with a high quality home studio. I believe I can offer a high quality product for the budget minded client. I am new to this industry, but I have done a lot of research into what it takes to become a great voice actor.
