I received a BFA in Acting from DePaul University the year after The Hollywood Reporter ranked us 17th best acting conservatory in the world.
But once I hit the professional scene in Chicago and LA, battle-scarred actors put me in place: ‘You know acting school doesn’t mean anything’ (70% correct).
Though one of our (prolific) professors once openly reprimanded my acting (while I was shirtless) in front of the entire cast: ‘You’ll be the fat guy in the sitcom… but you’ll never touch art.’
Oof.
A reaming that improved my acting twofold in less than twenty-four hours.
I signed with Chicago’s leading talent agency, booked some speaking roles on TV, a national theatrical tour, and earned my SAG card. I also had a speaking role in a national KFC commercial (“I told you, Terry“) among other regional commercials and (sometimes odd) productions.
In February of 2018 I received an email from a management company saying TV/Film didn’t need white dudes anymore. Around the same time, my Groundling’s improv instructor told me, “You got a really great voice, man.” So… I pivoted my career.
Since 2018 I’ve been a successful audiobook actor – recording over 75 audiobooks with thousands of positive reviews (like this title). In 2025, I aim to be one of the best audiobook narrators in the business.
Sure, nailing the perfect take for a McDouble radio spot is difficult… but audiobooks are on a different level.
Superb audiobook narration requires raw acting talent and training to make an entire 30k-100k+ word story come alive – often with dozens of characters and accents.
When you partner with me, you can depend on my narration to:
🍿 Immerse the listener into the scene with expertly performed dialogue.
🌍 Utilize over 12 accents that are authentic and convincing.
🎭 Flow naturally with great humor and comedic timing.
🥩 Deliver raw emotion, heart, and soul.
These are the qualities that turn casual listeners into your audiobook superfans.
On the business end of things, I work hard to make our collaboration as smooth as butter:
✅ Clear & fair contract – My contract is designed to be transparent and fair. It streamlines every step of the process, avoids ambiguity, and ensures everything stays tight and on schedule.
✅ Smooth onboarding – I provide an onboarding process beyond the 15-minute sample. It covers tone, character voices, and key details. This greatly streamlines our workflow, helps avoid hiccups, and ensures fast production times.
✅ One client at a time – Publishing houses with in-house narrators often treat authors like transactions, juggling dozens of projects simultaneously. With me, you get my full attention from start to finish.
✅ Efficient turnarounds – Keep your fans happy by releasing your title on or before schedule. Having a tight schedule can also significantly increase your revenue flow.
✅ Mixed & mastered audio – When you receive my neatly organized audio files, they’re ready for market. No ACX QC rejections. No worries. I can send the files or upload them to ACX myself. I give YOU the power of choice.
✅ Top-quality at a fair rate – I’ve refined my production process over 5 years so I can offer very competitive PFH rates. I won’t waste a penny of your fee dealing with hiccups caused by inexperience. (New clients receive a one-time discount).
✅ Long-term partnership benefits – As your readers fall in love with our audiobooks, I offer long-term partnerships for series and bundles with lower PFH rates and bigger savings for you.
✅ Supercharged marketing with a copywriter – The more popular your book is, the more notoriety I gain, and vice versa. I market all books I produce; I can even assist you with a promo to boost your title’s reach (I’m also a copywriter).
