Hey everyone,

I wanted to take a moment to speak with you directly about the future of this channel and where we’re heading from here.

Seeing so many fellow creators and voice actors hit with severe copyright actions lately has given me serious pause. It’s forced me to take a hard look at my own content to ensure I’m protecting the longevity of this platform—and safeguarding my journey as a voice actor.

Because my ultimate goal is to build a lasting, full-time career in the official industry, aligning with professional standards and navigating legal compliance isn't just an option—it's a non-negotiable step forward.

I want to be completely candid with you about the realities of how the entertainment business works right now:

A lot of people believe that throwing a **"Fair Use" disclaimer** in a video description shields fan content (I was one of them, because that typically is effective). Unfortunately, that’s not how the corporate landscape or automated enforcement operates. Today’s copyright systems rely on algorithms scanning for exact pixel matches and audio frequencies. If the system flags a few seconds of footage, it triggers an immediate claim or strike—regardless of how much heart, skill, or ground-up audio production went into it. Furthermore, Fair Use is primarily a U.S. legal framework; international rights holders (especially in places like Japan) operate under much stricter copyright laws that do not recognize Fair Use in the same way.

Relying on copyrighted video clips—no matter how much passion is poured into the performance—puts this entire platform in constant jeopardy. To keep this community thriving and to keep leveling up my craft, it’s time to evolve.

**So I’m shifting gears, taking ownership, and expanding in the best way I know how.**

This isn't just about playing it safe with copyright (well not entirely); it’s about opening the door to something bigger, more authentic, and far more creative. Moving forward, I want you all to get to know **ME**—not just behind a character clip, but as a performer, a creator, and a fellow fan. The heavy nostalgia, Dragon Ball Z, and Super Saiyan energy aren't going anywhere; I’m just building my own foundation now.

**Here’s what’s on the horizon for the channel:**

1. Real Talk & Industry Discussions:

Direct, unfiltered deep dives into voice acting trends, topics, reviewing, discussions of different types, creative processes, community news, and real-life perspectives.

2. Beyond the Classics:

DBZ will always be in my DNA and this channel, but it’s time to bring that same energy to EVERYTHING I love—from gaming, to Power Rangers, to Sonic the hedgehog, Marvel, DC, and stories across all walks of life.

3. Original Performances & Character Crafting:

On-camera showcases and original skits (some even hand-drawn, we’ll see how that goes), vocal studies, bridging voices, and building brand-new characters completely from scratch so you can see the true work that goes into the mic.

4. Behind the Mic & Audio Breakdown:

Deep dives into sound design, audio engineering, mixing techniques, and practical guidance for anyone looking to step into the booth themselves. I’m no expert but I’ll teach you what worked/works for me.

To everyone who has supported the fandub projects over the years: thank you from the bottom of my heart. Those projects built this foundation, and your support has meant everything to me. But my passion for voice acting and connecting with all of you isn't tethered to industry animation video footage.

I’m raising the bar, taking full ownership of my creative direction, and stepping into this next chapter with you all.

Thank you for riding on the nimbus cloud with me and keeping the drive alive. Drop a comment below and let me know what formats or topics you’re most hyped to see first!

Big things ahead. Stay Golden!

Hey — I had the chance to lend my voice as the narrator in The Necessary Nerd’s newest video:
“What If Goku Never Hit His Head - Part I.”
I just want to say… this one’s worth your time.
There’s a lot of creativity and effort behind it, and I’ve got a lot of respect for what he’s building over there.
If you’ve got a few minutes, go check it out and show him some support. I think you’ll be glad you did.

Stay Golden like Super Saiyans!

After countless hours behind the scenes, I’m proud to share a complete compilation of every Dragon Ball Z voice I perform.
Every piece of artwork was hand-drawn.
Every voice was performed by me.
All sound design, audio mixing, and video editing were completed entirely in-house.
This project is a genuine labor of love for a series that shaped my passion for voice acting, storytelling, and character performance. Dragon Ball didn’t just entertain me growing up—it helped define the artist I’ve become.
To everyone who has watched, shared, commented, and supported these clips along the way—thank you. Your support truly means more than you know.
This one’s for the fans.
🟡 Premieres tomorrow at 11:00 AM CT — I’ll be in the chat.
Stay Golden like a Super Saiyan.

I’m absolutely torn. Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball as well as popular mangaka such as Dr. Slump and the game Dragon Quest — Passes at age 68.

Akira Toriyama was a creator of my childhood, a sculptor in forming my life into what it would become in many ways. He brought me so many opportunities, opened so many doors, and allowed me to meet the woman of my dreams. Through his creative genius and his colorful array of characters, my imagination was painted. Through his outlet of expression, mine was crafted. I found art through his illustrations, and I found voice acting through the production of his mangaka.

Thank you, Mr. Toriyama. For everything you have done. For me, and for so many others. You shaped generations of people, and told us to tackle life with as much energy as Goku.

For you I always will!!!

“Until we meet again!!” - Son Goku (Dragon Ball)
