Default I keep skipping these intros - Hello from NY and Austin, TX!

Hi there all,

I'm from Austin, Texas originally, moved to New York City almost 9 years ago, but I'm back in Austin now for about 6 months or so (at least). Needed a break from the big city - that place is nuts!

My first voiceovers were back when I was in college, ahem, a while ago. I've really gotten back to it in New York in the last several years. Group classes, workshops, private coaching, narration demo, and just got the commercial demo done late June. I'm rarin' to go!

I'm so glad to be finding so many lovely and talented people willing to share their knowledge and support! Thanks for having me!

Alexis

Hello! I'm a Texan too! Born and raised. I divided my time between Lubbock and Dallas. I've been in Charlotte, NC for 6 years, but travel back often. I love my Texas plains! Nice to meet you!

OK... Confession..

I'm "fixin to" is a staple in my vocab too!

Worked in Houston radio and VO from 1981-83
Moved to San Antonio to do a morning radio show in '83 and lived there till 1999 when divorced!

But I don't really sound tooooooo Texan... being NY born and FL raised... and now residing in California!

Default Hehe

We Texans have such a huge state, and yet we go everywhere! I can't tell you how many Texans I ran into in New York. More than I did native-born New Yorkers, I'd bet!
