Why Erikka J?
Musical stage performance, songwriting, and public speaking backgrounds
Voiceover isn’t as simple as reading words on a page. As a trained and experienced vocal musician, I will season your script with just the right mix of musicality, rhythm, tempo and volume to communicate the message as you intend. As a songwriter and language lover, I will honor the words of your script and even make suggestions to fine tune if you get a little stuck on how to convey your ideas effectively. After years of recording my own songs, I know how to run studio equipment and recording software, as well as how to edit recordings (or deliver raw files if so desired) to deliver a broadcast quality sounding product. As no stranger to the stage and with on camera experience for music videos, my confident delivery will captivate consumers of your message with conviction.
Project and Product Management experience
As a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) with the Project Management Institute, I understand how important cost and schedule are to getting your project completed on time on within budget. I’ll stay in constant communication with you and ensure timely delivery of files in the format of your choice. As a product owner that has run scrum teams in an agile environment, I understand the software development process, to include developing eLearning modules, as well as what it takes to communicate the value of products to end users, which is what you will hear in my reads.
Bachelor’s degree in Human Communication
Around 90% of communication is non-verbal. So while the words in your copy are important, I have an intimate understanding of how inflexions, tonality, tempo, and other subtle nuances make all the difference in delivering the message as you intend.
Master’s degree in Business Administration
As a small business owner, your interactions with me will always be professional and I will always be sensitive to your needs. I strive to deliver a product that you are happy with.
A Naturally inquisitive learner, avid reader and passionate communicator
One thing I absolutely love about voiceover is getting the opportunity to learn so many new things by reading your scripts! I will ensure I understand the concept of copy and connect to it so that the message I deliver is the message you intend.
Experience in multiple industries including Technology, government contracting, software development, eLearning, automotive, data analytics, and more
Having experience in these industries gives me a knowledge base to pull from when connecting with your copy, so that your listeners get the message exactly as you want them to. To read more about my corporate experience, let’s connect on LinkedIn today!
A Corporate Creator
Experience operating from a left-brained perspective in my corporate positions combined with thriving as a right-brained creative, positions my work to be balanced - I will create the right emotions to connect with your audience while delivering the quality product you need to meet your business needs.
