Who's that girl?
When I was a kid, I loved music. Loved to sing. Loved to read. To myself. To pets. Stuffed animals. Other kids. And talk. I was that kid who consistently had "Talks too much" and "Distracts others in class" on report cards. So how'd I end up in voiceover? Glad you asked! Fast forward to my 20’s and you find an inadvertent radio jock. While working as the gatekeeper at a local station, the program director discovered I had chops. They started using me in commercials. Eventually I confessed that I could also produce those commercials because I went to college for audio engineering. Which meant I could also run a board. Board op AND a voice?! Heck yeah! I'm the full package. And so began my illustrious career in radio. Perfect! I was gonna get PAID to TALK! Alas, all good things must come to an end. I left radio. (Side note, but an important one: The program director also left radio. I later married said program director.) Turns out, we both loved writing and producing spots. Loved infusing life into every script. And the advertisers loved our work. When we left radio, they still wanted us to produce their commercials and on hold messages. Thus was born Tophoney Creative Services, now Tophoney Voiceovers, LLC. Since that first mic, tube amp and board in 2007, under the lovingly neurotic direction of my husband, the studio has evolved, grown, moved twice, upgraded, morphed and essentially taken on a life of it’s own. Bringing us to the sound you hear today. Which allows me to say, "Relax. You just found your voice."
