About me

Short description of my voice:
Smooth, clear, elegant, sensual, soothing and extremely versatile! I have a neutral European English accent, and speak Spanish with a neutral Castilian accent. I also speak Catalan fluently and am comfortable doing various accents whilst speaking in Spanish (English, French, Italian, Mexican) or English (Essex, RP, Spanish, French, Italian, Mexican). I have a wide range - I can do children's voices and also older voices. My voice is on language courses, computer games and lifts all over Spain, and I have recently moved to the UK and work freelance - Matinee Multilingual represent me, but not exclusively. Clients include Cambridge University Press, Braun, Johnson & Johnson, Friends of the Earth, Lenovo Computers and Bodi Design.
Additional skills:
I'm a professional singer and have over 20 years' experience performing and recording, including over a decade as the lead singer of the ONJAZZ (Spanish National Jazz Orchestra). Recording credits include the ONJAZZ, The Magic Whispers, Blue Train, Faithless, Randy Brecker and Paquito d'Rivera. I originally trained as an actress and occasionally perform in short films. I'm also a translator and interpreter, and have worked with a long list of international performers and companies in that capacity (Sony Music, Columbia Tri-Star, Cisco, the United Nations, The Royal Shakespeare Company, 20th Century Fox and Time Out to name a few; artists I've translated for include Celine Dion, Bon Jovi and Jennifer Lopez). I also have dubbing experience and have dubbed several commercials into English for Cannes festivals (Carefree, San Miguel beer) and cartoons in Spanish (All Dogs Go to Heaven, Ann Margret's singing voice in Newsies). I translated all the songs in A Nightmare before Christmas into Spanish and several Muppets films.
