I've been voice acting since early 2007. My first big roles were as Kat, Roo and Beth
Spear in Agent 003 in which I
played an older woman, a military-esque operative and an alien teenager. Though most productions I've been
casted in have been canceled, I was extremely lucky that not only did the producer not drop the radioplay,
he released episodes quite regularly throughout the eleven episode run. It was through Agent 003
that I first heard the voices of Morgan
"Mochan" Barnhart and Quint
"Bomberman" Boyd who would become large parts of my AVA life.
While producing short audio clips for my novel project, I was invited to be a guest on Mo
and Q's Take 3 podcast. We had so much
fun I was invited back to cohost with Mochan during Bomberman's absence and the three of us began a
professional and personal friendship through the VAA
and Livejournal. I have since met Mo in person twice and Q once
during AVA meet-ups.
By 2008 I had done several podcasts for Take 3 and Radioplay Contests, had been involved in a failed AVA website
--for which I had written several articles--and had produced a handful of one-shot radioplays which
comprised of most of acting roles at that time. I could no longer take the abundant juvenile attitudes of
the VAA nor the disappointments as both actor and producer any more and retired from the scene. Though I
continued to record lines for productions I had been cast in before this decision, I no longer produced
new radioplays nor auditioned for any new roles. My sole deviation came when Mochan and Bomberman needed
someone to help host their podcasts while the two were busy. Travis, or BigTUnit1, and I answered the call and
the show went on.
By mid 2009 I was bit by the voice-acting bug again. Distanced from the annoyance of the
AVA world for a year, I found only fond memories of the experience left behind and began auditioning and
producing once again. The story of this voice actor is far from over so check back for the next exciting chapter.
