Voice Description
I’ve been told that I sound like Principal Skinner (The Simpsons character as voiced by Harry Shearer). I aspire to be as clear and crisp as Bill Kurtis (NPR and CBS) or Carl Kasell (NPR). As a backstage announcer at some large business conventions, I was nicknamed VOG (voice of god [lower case “g” please]). I am a business owner in the gas technology field so technical reads and industrial site safety videos (I’ve had to sit through many) are very familiar to me. VoiceCoaches put me through many tests and I found that I’m not half bad at documentaries and character acting for books … who knew?! My tag line says “the unknown voice behind the curtain” which means I am not looking for fame and fortune; I do enjoy it when people come up to me and say “you sound just like that guy on the radio.” Sometimes I just say “thank you”, other times I say “well, that’s because, that is me.” You’ll have to ask me about the time my mother was asked about her last name being the same as “that guy on the radio” (circa 1976).
