I regularly count my lucky stars that I get to split my time between Los Angeles and Minneapolis/St. Paul - two wildly different locations with a surprising amount of overlap in the kinds of voiceover work available. Minneapolis/St. Paul is dear to me, however, for its capacity to foster friendships with colleagues; the time spent working here is often spent with people I have come to know personally - something not often possible in L.A. These particular voiceover spots are special to me because I was hired on by the same producer who hired me for one of my very first voice-over gigs eight years ago. It's inspired a fair amount of reflection of the entire lifetime spent in these past eight years, and for that I am grateful.
