about me
I’ve always been an avid reader and music fan, two things I shared with my father. When I was 12, my dad lost his eyesight as an effect of Type 1 Diabetes, and through him, I was introduced to audiobooks, although back then they were called “talking books” or books on tape.
I was a junior at Ithaca College in my hometown of Ithaca, NY the first time someone paid me for the use of my voice. It was at the radio station I’d listened to my whole young life, and I started as a news intern, and later became News Director and then, after graduation, added “DJ” to my resume.
In the years since, I’ve gone from only using my voice on the radio (and now, streaming radio on LiveOne) and for commercial voiceovers to narrating audiobooks — it’s all come full circle. I only wish my dad could see me now!
Yeah, the answer to the question, “do you ever shut up?” is… well, not really, no.
I live in Nashville, TN with my two pit bulls and when I’m not working, I love reading, singing karaoke, raising money for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and going to concerts (which is technically work, but just try and keep me away).
