As a narrator, success is when even the author is engrossed in listening to the story. I have been building my audiobook portfolio since 2014, and finally took on narration as my full-time work in 2017. I have been honing my skills in narration as a hobby for many years, and was thrilled to be able to turn it into a profession. I have always held a fascination for how people speak, and have spent many engrossing hours in conversation and research around what makes different people actually sound different. I believe this gives my reading, especially my dialog narration, a unique flare. I spend time crafting ... more each character’s voice based on vocal reference and personal exprience; in addition, of course, to character notes from the text itself, as well as conversation with the creator of the character, where possible. I have found that I am energized by my narration projects, and that I’m almost overwhelmingly excited to go to the studio every day to work on a chapter, or discover a new character’s voice. I have my own recording equipment, and recently added a home studio to my technological advantages. My aim, always, is to read a story the way an author hears it in their own head. My ultimate goal as a narrator is to render the content in so enthralling a manner that even its original creator becomes completely engrossed in listening to their own story. I'm eager to help authors bring their creative vision to life through narration. less
