Voice acting

Moo performed his voice work both in professional recording studios and a personal home studio. He is good friends with fellow voice actors David Brimmer, Dan Green and Michael Sinterniklaas, among others. Around the time Moo worked on One Piece he was working as a bartender at the Quarter Bar in Brooklyn. He recorded the voice of Sanji from 2004 up until the dub's cancellation in 2007.
