About

I'm a British voice actor and audiobook narrator with a warm, engaging voice, a natural storytelling style and a passion for bringing characters to life. My experience spans fantasy, romance, science fiction, psychological thrillers, mysteries and memoirs, with multiple published audiobook credits. Working from my professional home studio, CUTS Studio, I provide expressive, character-driven narration and fully produced, publication-ready audio. I particularly enjoy exploring emotional depth, distinctive personalities and the worlds that make stories unforgettable.

Training: AS Level Drama & Theatre Studies, including practical performance and character interpretation. RADA Shakespeare examination, developing skills in classical text, vocal expression and dramatic delivery. Additional experience in creative writing, character development and storytelling as a fantasy novelist. Independent professional development in audiobook narration, voice acting, recording, editing and audio production, alongside practical experience producing published audiobooks and performing in audio drama productions.

Setup: I record from CUTS Studio, my dedicated, acoustically treated home recording space in the UK. My setup includes a RØDE NT1 Signature Series condenser microphone, Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 audio interface, pop filter, closed-back monitoring headphones and acoustic treatment to minimise unwanted reflections and background noise. I record, edit and master using Audacity, delivering clean, professional, production-ready audio to ACX specifications or individual client requirements. My workflow includes audio cleanup, noise reduction where necessary, loudness normalisation, mastering and quality control. I can also supply raw, unprocessed recordings when required. I am equipped to manage audiobook production independently, from initial recording through to final delivery.
