Back in 1999, before anyone ever heard the name, I booked a show titled “Dora The Explorer”. I voiced characters on it for its first 11 years. Fast forward Dora is back with all new episodes and a whole new look and I’m back voicing the role I originated 25 years ago, Val the Octopus. I’m often told that I wear a lot of hats. I like to say I just have lots of arms. They’re not something I take off and put on. It’s all just an extension of who I am. animation threads
