QUOTES: "I'm more of a facilitator. I ask other people the questions so that they can give us the answers and they're the guides and I've learned a lot as I go, I just keep on learning and I keep asking questions." "So it took me a while to get into the voice acting thing because I, in '95-'96, volunteered my time at Canadian National Institute for the Blind. I was reading articles from magazines onto reel to reel tape and I was as fascinated with the tech." "I learned some things from the school of hard knocks and gradually improved my craft by getting coaching and by having very generous people take me under their wing and help me along." "What is this audio branding thing? Because it's pretty important and not a lot of people are thinking about it intentionally." "Sound reaches us on such a deep, visceral level - that it amazes me people don't use it more often. So I started my own podcast on it because I was fascinated and I wanted to ask other people about it." "We buy based on emotions, we don't buy based on logic. We may say we buy based on logic, but we just don't."
