Having been an actor for over 25 years I have a great love of, and affinity with, words and poetry. I love painting pictures with words and many pictures can be created from the same words depending on how those words are read or performed. This is why I find being a voice artist so exciting. From an early age I've been doing commentaries and 'voiceover', not that I really knew it at the time, as from the age of 6 or 7 I was always one of the two or three asked to do a reading at the school's carol concerts. This continued at my other schools and where a narrator or announcer was required for a production, I was given the job. Fast forward 15 years, I was appearing in a Christmas show – the largest in the UK and the director asked the producer to do a brief religious reading. Although a very experienced opera singer, he didn’t feel comfortable appearing as ‘himself’. The producer happened to call me at home and on hearing my answerphone message thought that I would be ideal for the job and the rest is history. I was in this show for over 10 years, ended up directing other actors in drama pieces, and also providing the front of house safety and show announcements. Since becoming a voice artist, I have built up a small clientele all around the world. But perhaps my most exciting job was being asked to do a promo for a new ‘Warhammer’ game by Fantasy Flight Games in the US. I always put 110% into any work I do to ensure a client is happy, and look forward to working with new clients with any challenge they pass my way.

John is a fantastic voice over artist that I would highly recommend to anyone in the future. I've worked on many projects that have required voice overs, and John is one of those individuals who makes my job so much easier.... Fantastic communication, very giving and accommodating with regards to auditioning and willing to provide whatever was needed to keep our client happy. The sound quality was of a very high standard, and his actual read was brilliant, despite it being a tricky read. I hope to have another project for John in the future as I'd work with him again an instant.
