About

I'm a British narrator with a boxful of accents. My natural accent is neutral British. Voice is warm, authentic, compelling. Have lived and worked in the UK, France, Germany, Italy, US. I have a background in music, art, theatre, fashion and psychology, dogs and horses. I have worked in TV, video, Film and Radio. I perform nuanced yet distinct characters, inc. complex female characters, believable male voices, and character arcs from shy wallflower to strong and confident force.

Training: PJ Ochlan Masterclass, Sean Pratt, Ana Clements, Johnny Heller, JoAnna Perrin, Shannon Parks.
