Bio

I think I made up my mind early on that talking made me tick. I have spent my entire professional career talking in different languages, mostly for other people, including Nelson Mandela, when I interpreted for him shortly after his release from prison in 1990. Before that, I was on the staff of simultaneous interpreters at NATO HQ in Brussels. Thereafter, for 30 years, my work as a free-lance interpreter in the front line of multilateral diplomacy, enabled me to tell literally thousands of stories, which I have since gone on to do as an audiobook narrator. Alongside this work, I have devoted significant time to creating animated content aimed at helping people to talk to each other. I have honed my performance skills through appearances on stage, screen, and behind the mike as a voice artist.
