    If you need an engaging voiceover for a commercial, business pitch, or radio or TV ad – I can do it for you. I'm also an editor, so I can proofread your script and help with amendments. I've done internal voice-overs for corporate and tech companies, alongside fashion brands. This includes pitches for new clients and voice-overs for videos/trailers. In addition, I was a radio presenter/producer for 4 years across live shows, podcasting, and interviews. I have a professional, middle-class, eloquent voice with a natural London-Surrey accent. My tone ensures corporate pitches go from dull to enticing, with exceptional annunciation to highlight statistics and captivates the room. We all know data isn't the most invigorating of topics, but my voice-overs bring a lightness and engagement perfect for your company. Simply let me know the style/tone for I tailor every project personally, and I can record your script in any style or tone you wish: Corporate Pitches | Video Voice Over | Radio Ads | TV Ads | Podcast Presenting| Match audio to video | Business Tutorials | Audiobooks | Narrations | Product Launches.
