The most common question asked of any voice over is “Where can I hear you?” And most likely the answer is on TV and radio as the voice of commercials, sponsorship bumpers, documentaries and promos.
Commercials are always fun when the copy is sharp and to the point. And while it’s great to be part of a national campaign, the bread and butter work is for small companies advertising on individual stations.
National brands include Bosch, Miele, Henry Westons, eharmony and RSPCA.
I was thrilled to be nominated for Radio Commercials Best Performance (male) at the 2022 One Voice Awards for Leopoldstadt, broadcast on Classic FM.

Promos or trailers – both are created to whet an appetite and deliver an audience to a programme. There’s a real craft to their making and placing.
Currently, I am one of the main promo voices on Turkey’s international, English speaking news channel TRT World, while previously have been a lead promo voice on national Classic FM.
