About

In all the years I've spent and will spend on Earth, one thing will always be true: There is always more to learn and experience. It is with that underlying theme that I passionately pursue both my professional work and leisure activities!

I'm currently working as a freelance Voice Actor as well as jointly running my own Voice Acting Community, The TAP VO Guild, an ever growing community of my fellow Voice Acting peers and friends. We collectively encourage and support each other's works and careers as well as provide an ever growing roster of actors for any project or production in need of voices. With actors from all over the world, of all different ethnicities, and from a multitude of varying personal backgrounds, the TAP VO Guild provides community and support in the otherwise lonely slog that is freelance work.

Pinoy and Proud, I love singing, dancing, and living life loud and happy! Music is an integral part of my life. I started as a classically trained trombonist in the 5th grade. Come high school, I became a Drum Major for my Junior and Senior years where I picked up the foundation of my principles of leadership. I believe that Interpersonal connection and a focus of encouraging your team members individual personal growth and confidence is the greatest way to elicit their maximum potential and produce the greatest finished product.After graduation and into college I worked as a swimming instructor where I refined my teaching and directing abilities further. Through a combination of studying material in my Communication classes as well as work experience teaching adolescents how to swim I grew in my abilities to Instruct, Explain, Reinforce, and Teach any information I knew to others and adapt my teaching style to suit the student.

Outside of music and my Career I have a wealth of hobbies that I enjoy in my free time including traveling, playing video games, going on runs, riding motorcycles, skiing and snowboarding, yoga and exercising, hiking, enjoying nature, photography, cooking, learning languages, studying history and more!I enjoy being whimsically outgoing and playful as well as being exceptionally extroverted. I also care deeply for my loved ones and consider my close friends as being my family as well. If I can get people to smile then I'm doing something right, and I cannot wait to work with you and share in great experiences and full laughter!
