Why coach with Shelley?
I first came to Shelley for instruction in medical narration. Although she is an absolute legend in that arena, it does not mean she’s a slouch in other genres. Quite the contrary! Shelley has put me through the VO ringer - helping me get from simply a dude with a demo to *actually* working as a professional voice actor. From impeccable performance techniques to setting up the essential (yet boring) business aspects to optimizing your P2P profiles to establishing effective marketing strategies - Shelley has you covered!
