A Little More About Tracy
From Corporate Suits to the creative world of her voice over Booth…
After a wonderful 25 year career in IT Fintech Program Management for Financial Institutions, Tracy left the suits behind and opened her studio. And she hasn’t looked back since!
Tracy built her broadcast studio in Vienna, Virginia where she records broadcast quality projects that meet industry standards. She even gets her booth checked out annually with an outside engineer audit. Which means you won’t have to worry about audio quality with Tracy!
Since building her studio, Tracy has trained with some of the best coaches in the industry; and keeps coaching to stay on top of the industry trends. You can check out her recent coaches and classes here: Coaches & Training
Tracy's a "Seeker"
Always looking for that “thing” that makes her heart sing, Tracy has tried all sorts of side gigs and jobs (all while working her 9-5).
Here are a couple of her favorite adventures:
-
Providing aqua therapy for dogs and cats (she's still doing this today!)
-
Being a “Big Sister” in the Be-a-Friend Program
-
Coaching youth soccer for 10+ years
-
Working with animals as a veterinary assistant
-
Mentoring and teaching teens one-on-one at a private school
Working in these areas with kids, students, parents and animals has given Tracy a unique perspective on life and she uses those experiences daily in bringing voice over projects to life and connecting with audiences of all kinds.
Outside the Booth
When Tracy isn’t in the booth or managing her business, she’s either walking her dog, Loki, hiking with friends (some may say providing therapy to friends), or snuggling up on the couch with a good book and her grandkitty, Nori.
