I am honored to say that my voiceover friend from Istanbul,  Andy Boyns, who interviewed me at the Voice 2010 conference after a long afternoon presentation has published the audio as part of his "Person Behind The Voice" podcast series.

The interview was probably recorded at not such an opportune time. We were both pretty  tired, I was feeling pretty "off the cuff" (not very articulate) and  hoarse from talking...a LOT, but it works.

Today was fun! I did some recording in the morning  for Hilton, State Farm and some others, and then actually had a chance to venture out of the booth and head out to have lunch with my voiceover pals, Connie Terwilliger from San Diego and Larissa Gallagher a transplanted Aussie visiting the area by way of Washington, from D.C., where she's lived for 3 years.

And did we "talk shop"? Only a little bit. A lot of laughs, too.


Thanks, ... << MORE >>

Another Day, another scam...this one targeting voiceover actors

Scams run rampant on the web.

Hey Everyone,
I am freshly back from 12 glorious days in Wisconsin. The weather cooperated, I had a ball and I've posted my pics in a Facebook album and if you're one of my friends there, go here . Now I believe I can stay sane for another six months!

 Speaking of pics, I've just spent some time re-living the many wonderful moments of the Voice 2010 conference.

I write as I sit at the airport, awaiting my flight for Milwaukee that leaves in an hour. I'll actually be on vacation for nearly two weeks. I am really looking forward to this one.

I've been working super hard and it's been a great year so far, but as I revealed to my peers and my director in my acting class last night, I'm feeling kind of "beat".

• Talk about things that matter to people who care
• Truth is not new, it’s old!
