Available to hire
I’m Steve Ivings, a versatile writer, performer and voice artist based in Victoria, BC. Over the past three decades I have written and voiced radio and TV commercials, produced and performed in dinner theatre and stand-up shows, and steered projects from stage productions to creative direction.
From CFAX Radio to Star Potential Studios and Canadian Traffic Network, I’ve worn many hats—writer, producer, director, host and entertainer—always focused on telling engaging stories and bringing audiences to life with humor and warmth.
