As a Voice Over Artist and Specialist, I work in narration, commercial, audiobooks, character/animation, gaming and ADR. Credits and voice samples can be found here.
During my training, I discovered a keen interest in the voice and realised my own vocal potential. As such, I chose to extend my actor training into certain specialised electives in vocal production and dialects. Throughout my work as an actor, particularly in the area of voice over, my experience has allowed me to put a number of techniques to use in delivering exacting performances and I carry these skills and strategies over into my coaching services.
HOLISTIC APPROACH
In my 8 years coaching individuals, teams and senior leaders, I recognise the importance of presence. When you are aligned with yourself and your purpose and you come into ‘being’ rather than ‘doing’ or ‘showing’, then you are present with others and that’s when you have true and honest connection and that’s what makes for really effective communication. Whether it’s for public speaking or to enhance communication skills, the strategies I work with offer you the opportunity to align with your true purpose and let you be genuine and engaging with others so you can be wholly present and in the moment with each other, communicating your truth and intentions with ease.
I believe that everything starts with breath and I engage the power of breath and connection within all the areas of my work so I have developed the Breath Alignment Practice which establishes release and relaxation, cultivating presence and connection, to allow you to reach a state of readiness, giving you the best approach into the process, allowing you to better achieve your goals. I like to establish this foundation for every person I work with so you will be introduced to aspects within this process upon beginning work with me.
I work with you, tailoring sessions to offer a bespoke service to work with the whole person, allowing you to find your voice, to be present and to be confidently you.
