I WORK IN THE VOICE OVER INDUSTRY AS A(N)
Voice Actor
HERE'S A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY VOICE OVER EXPERIENCE
I have been a working voiceover actor for...yikes -over 15 years! I have been the branding voice for May Company, Jenny Craig, National Car Rental, The Virginia Lottery and I have recorded literally hundreds of commercials for tv and radio. I was the live announcer for the 2010 Grammys, the 2010 Espys, The Grammy Nomination show (in Nov. 2009), the 2008 Primetime Emmy Awards and the 2007 Grammys. I have also originated several roles in video games, most notably as Hildy Razwell in Dead to Rights and Niki in Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball, with Dennis Rodman.
My photographer husband and I take turns wrangling our 2 amazing little boys and throwing dinner parties for our wonderful friends in beautiful San Diego, California. Life is good!
