About

I'm a Portland, Oregon based audiobook narrator with over 20 years of stage experience and conservatory training, including intensive programs at RADA and Lee Strasberg. I bring a polished, emotionally layered sound to every performance. I am a trained lyric soprano with a deep command of accents (Irish, Northern Irish, British RP, Scottish, Italian) and gravitate toward high fantasy, historical fiction, sci-fi, mysteries, and thrillers. I'm the narrator you call when your protagonist carries great responsibility, feels everything, fights to maintain composure, but doesn’t always succeed.
