SKILLS
ABOUT DAVE JACKSON
My extensive background in management, corporate communications, business writing, multi-media production, broadcast journalism, sportscasting, advertising copywriting, and television writing - along with exceptional communications skills - offers your organisation someone with an outstanding combination of experience, enthusiasm and a genuine \'can-do\' attitude. And, I work to strict deadlines with an obsessive attention to detail. A natural storyteller, I have an encyclopedic knowledge of news, current events, history, and sports. I have directed voice-over talent for over 20 years, as well as being an accomplished and versatile announcer, broadcaster, podcaster and voice-over actor offering a wide array of characters, impersonations, and accents. Luckily, this also works well as cheap entertainment for the wife and kids-)
