And Kerry's own pre-VO careers took him back there, as well as to the Middle East, Korea, the US, and sub-Saharan Africa. All this has helped enrich Kerry's multicultural and international business cultural experience. Hence his 'well-travelled' description on his website.A trained actor and voice actor, Kerry is very keen on narration, including corporates, explainers, audioguides, commercials, character voices. He speaks German as a second language and he's well-versed in a range of British accents, including his native Yorkshire.Kerry 's Website Kerry 's Facebook pageResources: These are the audiobooks we love:Kerry: 'The Five - the untold stories of the women killed by Jack The Ripper' by Hallie Rubenhold.
