Bio
My name is Shaquille Mezas.
I have lived in many places in the world forcing me to speak different languages fluently.
Due to this I have become capable to learn & understand many different accents and am therefore also capable of many voices. 
I was born in the Netherlands where I was raised, and lived there for 10 years.
I finished High School in Florida where I lived for about 2 years before moving to Aruba.
I now work & live on Aruba in a Hotel where I meet and speak to many people from around the world everyday.
I am married to my Colombian wife and therefore speak Spanish at home every day to my wife and my son.
I am capable of almost everything you need, simply contact me and we'll work it out.
