I have been interested in voice work for a long time. I remember in high school, I once did a line from an old Bo Burnham song for a friend, and she remarked, "You have a really good voice; you should be a voice actor." During high school, I also participated in theatre, where I received feedback that I delivered lines "really well and very believably." I've always enjoyed creating voices, but not necessarily doing impressions. My focus has been on developing a voice that fits a character's archetype or vibe rather than mimicking a specific individual.

As for my experience, I joined the college radio station and created a show where I presented folklore, mythology, and historical stories. It had a spooky spin, which influenced my presentation style. I often drew inspiration from the character Lucien Lechance from Oblivion to get into that storytelling space. After college, I somewhat drifted away from that podcast and started a new one, inspired by my newfound love of worldbuilding. I created a show called Spellbound Soirée, where I present a fantasy radio show with a mage as the host who discusses various happenings in the town.

I hope to have the opportunity to work with you!
