Cedar Rapids, IAemail: -
Since the early 1990’s I have been recording, copywriting, and producing a variety of commercials, PSA’s and spots for local cable TV, radio, local businesses, and non-profits. In addition to my broadcasting career, I have worked in sales and marketing in a variety of industries for over 30 years and have done many live presentations as well as training sessions. I endeavor to provide quality audio at affordable prices to fit your budgetary and/or project needs.
A career change has afforded me the opportunity to return to doing voice overs full time. My love of narration and reading aloud has always been a natural part of my personality. Complete with a small repertoire of character voices and accents. I have often been complimented on my natural sense of timing, cadence, and comfortableness on recordings. This is because I love what I do.
In addition, I do offer freelance marketing services to small businesses for advertising, promotion, web content writing, research, and event planning at affordable rates.
