Bio

I love collaborating with my clients and I pride myself on being easy to work with, whether in-person or remote. I grew up loving the books of Asimov, Crichton, Clancy, Bradbury, and L’Engle. My love of reading is one of the things that has connected me with my wife (since we met in 8th grade).

My background prior to finding audiobook narration has been on the technical side of the performing arts. I have traveled extensively for the past 25 years, working on live events that have included Broadway musicals, USO-style shows on overseas Air Force bases, sold-out concerts in football stadiums, and high-finish corporate events around the world. As a voracious reader, I love the experience of narrating a book that I might never have otherwise picked up.

Over the past four years, I have been working to hone my skills and to find the places I fit best...and I have found a passion for audiobook narration. I love finding the voices of the characters, be they an angry Chicago cop, an angsty teen girl, or a fallen angel who has lost their memory (yep, I've done that). I love finding the tone of a book, whether it's a tense drama, a light hearted cottage romance, or a tongue-in-cheek satire.

I have spent years working behind the scenes with some of the largest companies in the world and I understand the incredible importance of a strong brand; whether it’s a Fortune 500 corporation or a first-time author, my goal is to bring your words and your vision to life.
