Bio:
Michelle is a London based American actor and BA Musical Theatre graduate, from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.
She has completed several audiobooks, including; Rekindled by K.A. Riley, of which she is recording the sequel, as well as an upcoming thriller set in NYC.
She has in-studio experience, including; ADR for After the Hunt, and for corporate videos.
She was part of an Off-Broadway musical directed by two-time Tony nominated director Denis Jones, and acted in several short films in London.
With her extensive theatre training, Michelle can confidently play a range of characters, including; snobby LA-teens, 11 year old boys, ethereal queens, to impish alien creatures.
She can do a wide range of US accents, as well as an excellent RP English accent.
Michelle is also a highly skilled singer, adept at many styles, from folk-rock, to musical theatre, to classical.
K.A. Riley states, "If it's not already in Michelle's bio or list of talents, she might want to mention that she is skilled at managing multiple voices in a given narrative. She's reading chapters right now with as many as eight different girls and several boys talking at or around the same time. Her shifts are subtle and effective, and they enable the listener to keep track of a chorus of voices. Very impressive!"
