About Jerry

I spent 25 years as an Air Traffic Controller, which means I know exactly what it's like to speak when it matters most.  I used my voice to guide people-including 4 U.S. Presidents-safely to their destination.

My voice has always been at the forefront of what and who I am.    Even as a 5 year old in Kansas City, I was the kid doing character and actor voices on the school bus.  They always wanted to hear Donald Duck!  As an air traffic controller I once had an air traffic instructor comment, "Your voice is so powerful you could make planes fly into brick walls!" 

During my ATC career I had an opportunity to do a side job as a disc jockey, and it was here I was introduced to voice acting.  In 2015 after retiring from air traffic control, I transitioned to full time voice actor.

I know the way I talk is not subtle.  I'm not loud, or boisterous, but my voice is powerful and confident sounding.  I can't help it, it's just me.  I realized that during my years of being an air traffic controller.  When pilots heard my voice and my instructions, they did it without hesitation.  My confidance in issuing those instructions, was knowing the craft to the best of my ability.  I did that by never being complacent and being my strongest critic.  

I bring that experience and philosophy to voice acting.  It's the same thing really, it's just a different product.

1) Understanding:. Grasping the situation, thats the who, what, where 
2) Evaluating: Identifying the "how"-Finding the resonounce that brings a script to life.
3) Deliver: Executing with precision to ensure total client satisfaction.

Today, I use my professional broadcast quality studio combined with my unique skills, and experience with a voice that is confident, powerful and assured.
