About
My voice has been characterized as clear, fresh and pleasant. My sound is youthful, intelligent, calming, authentic and quite versatile. When it comes to character voices, don’t put it past me to get gritty, goofy, sinister or seductive; whatever it takes to bring a character to life!
Since 2017 I have been working with studios in and around Frankfurt, Germany and clients worldwide via my home studio, equipped with a Rode NT1-A condenser microphone and Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 in an acoustically-treated space. As of May 2024, you can also find me in Gijón, Spain where I'm set up with a Shure SM7b, Focusrite Scarlett 2i2, in, of course, an acoustically-treated space.
