HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE

I'm an Emmy-award-winning broadcaster, writer, producer.
I've worked with my voice all my life. I'm a singer, and have years of voice-over expertise, on-camera presentation, live-reporting, public-speaking, hosting, Emcee-ing, producing, writing, and editing.
I'm a blogger of all things voice-over. Come see me at: http://www.courvo.biz
I grew up on a crop farm in the middle of South Central Illinois. Pigs, cows, chickens, horses...wheat, beans, corn...I know the value of hard work and persistence.
University of Illinois, BS, MS 1977...that's my alma mater, and where my oldest daughter now attends as a Dance Major.
Graduate: School of hard knocks in Radio, TV News...all over the country. My first job was at KCCC, The Golden Country sound of Carlsbad, NM.
