I pursued a degree in Theatre with a dual emphasis in Acting and Directing, after educational experience as V.P. of the local chapter of the International Thespian Society in High School. The production and performance education and experience here allowed me to help out on various commercial shoots and sessions over my years in professional promotion and marketing.
This is a sampler of voiceover work I did for various outlets, including both straight and character voices. Some of the original spots include video, but if not I have included some Photoshop fun, with some deconstruction of how it was done.
This :30 spoof ad from 1999 was shot at night right outside the station, and starred myself and the Programming manager at the station, Linda Larney, who did a great job duplicating that performance during the iconic up-nose shot!
This is a student production of Happy Birthday Wanda June by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. that I was happy to participate in during the senior year of my Bachelor of Arts in Theatre (dual emphasis major Acting/Directing). It was performed in January of 1994 at the University of Northern Colorado, in the Little Theatre of the Rockies, Gray Hall, in the theatre that was called Gray Theatre at the time but now is named Norton Theatre, in remembrance of Lloyd Norton who is also featured in this show (RIP).

This is a class musical production of Brigadoon, book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe, produced and directed by Barry Roberts and performed in March 1990 at Chatfield Senior High school, in the high school’s fairly impressive theatre. I think everyone did a great job!
Dana demonstrated a strong desire to understand all facets of the technology department as it related to a casino environment while working with our team. Dana continually expanded his breath of knowledge in the areas of networking, communications, software development and database administration. There was no challenge Dana couldn't handle and was always eager to except. Dana was a team player, a person who thought outside the box and always came to work with a positive can do attitude. A winner in every way!
