I WORK IN THE VOICE OVER INDUSTRY AS A(N)
Voice Actor, Creative Director, Voiceover Coach, Vocal Coach
HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE
I started in my parents basement as a DJ, pretending that I was on the radio. Then I discovered that I could make more money by just talking. I was asked to put my voice on everybody's answering machine...so that they could get rid of their ex-boyfriends. I charged $10 per call...not bad for a 18 year old still living at home...huh?
I'm currently the PD/MD/ID for WKKC radio in Chicago, which is a college radio station(wkkc.fm) and I host two shows. One is called "Legends" and the other is called "Bedtime Stories" I have 25 years in the business as a PD/MD/OM, production director and personality, having worked for WLTH-Gary, WGCI AM/FM in Chicago, WJPC-FM in Chicago and WXLA-AM in Lansing, Michigan. I currently voice WYCC-TV 20 here Chicago, WBGX-AM 1570 in Chicago and my own station WKKC-FM.

Hi Al,
Wishing you the very best, Happy Birthday!!! Enjoy.
Best Regards,
I’d like to invite you to join a group I’ve started called “Voices of Colors.” There members offer information and advise each other on navigating this business as people of color. Just go to "forum" (up top), then to "groups," then join "Voices of Colors." Looking forward to hearing of your experiences.
Mike
