I am an American voice-over artist based in Amsterdam, specializing in mid-Atlantic or international English – that’s English that’s not too American and not too British, when you want to appeal to a broad audience – and don’t want to offend anybody.
A premier voice-over artist best known for my authentic, conversational approach, I’ve done voice work for dozens of companies like Heineken, Lego, Qatar Airlines, Zalando, Sennheiser and Epidemic Sound, as well as ad agencies like Ogilvy, VML and TBWA\NEBOKO.
I have my own studio with professional equipment. I usually deliver within 24 hours. You can call in for a live session on whatever platform you choose. Or you can brief me. I always do a number of takes. And retakes are not an issue – as long as they’re based on delivery or approach. I’m just as happy to come to your studio if that suits the job better.

Can’t find any prices on this site?
That’s because each job is different and my fee depends on the type of project. I have a Basic Studio Fee for an hour of recording, regardless of script length.
Once we’re good…
…we can get on with the brief: what tone of voice and style are you looking for? If you have examples – of mine or anyone else’s – that’s great.
Take a seat
I have a fully-equipped professional studio. You can call in on-line and direct me live or let me get to work and receive the audio for review after.
If you haven’t started editing your film, there’s no need to use Adam from 11 labs–I can record a guide track for you, no charge, and then do the final voice-over once your film is picture lock.
I’ll record up to three takes of the copy. If you haven’t directed me live, and aren’t completely happy, I’ll do a retake, no problem.
Speaking of rewrites, writing copy in English for an international audience can be tough. I can help.
After years of waiting patiently while my neighbors drilled into their walls, added another wash to the machine or played that boogie-woogie one more time on their piano (practice makes perfect!), I finally had a double-walled, double glazed, vocal booth with a Very Heavy Door built (by Houk van Lier). Now I can record professional audio day or night, whenever I need to. Life is sweet.
In celebration of that booth, here’s is an ode to all my clients and their awesome voice-over scripts—I love you guys. It’s the only corporate film you’ll ever need to see!
Send me a few lines of your script and I’ll send you a demo, free of charge.
Broadcast quality audio within 24 hours!
