About me
Short description of my voice:The qualities most identified with my voice are articulate, trustworthy, intellectual, and friendly.
My actor training, including a Shakespeare MA, means that I am at ease with commercial, cartoon, and drama projects, and I can lend an engaging and lyrical lilt to audiobooks and material that benefits from being ‘lifted’ from the page, such as corporate and technical work with complex vocabulary. My academic PhD in 17th-century British drama gives my voice an educated, articulate authority perfect for documentaries. Certification as a teacher of English as a second language makes me a reliable guide for e-learning projects. I am also certified as a radio presenter, with particular experience presenting the news.
As a professional actor I have experience in all media, including London’s West End.
Additional skills:
Writing copy; audio editing; basic audio mastering; sourcing royalty-free and original music and sound effects; sourcing additional voice artists.
Industry awards:
2015: Lead role in Caverion's multi-award-nominated 'Space Saga' adverts (Bob the Robot Pictures).
Referees:
"Lightning fast, super easy, and on point!"
- Conundroom Express
