J.T. delivered exactly what we were looking for and turn it around lightning quick. Great job.

~TFA Entertainment


James gives joyous life, deep honesty and surprising tenderness to the role...He worked quickly and professionally within incredibly tight deadlines and delivered above and beyond anything I could have hoped for. I'm confident James will be an incredible asset to any voice project.

~Palace of Midnyte


[James] has a fantastic voice! Highly recommended; even though he was a supporting part of the project, he was very invested. I could not recommend him more, especially the speed with which he turns in his lines. I wish great things for him, and hope to work together again soon!

~Connor Kopko
