Bio

 

I was a youth member of a travelling marionette theatre in New Hampshire.  I loved puppetry.  But I was really good at math.  So I got a degree in Electrical Engineering and headed out to Silicon Valley.  After the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, I returned to puppetry.  I engaged in engineering and acting endeavors in parallel.  Puppetry led to voice over, an agent, commercials and a SAG card.  Narrating for The Lighthouse inspired me to join ACX.  By 2018 I was narrating full-time in my home studio where I have produced 200 books and counting.   I also conduct museum tours and throw stones at the Buffalo Curling Club.
