Biography Dale Van Der Schaaf

I am from the Dakotas, Northern Plains - Midwesterner in birth, temperament, humor and work ethic. All moved with me 25 years ago to Las Vegas and then in ’93 to Denver.

For a couple of decades I ran large companies…but found my love of singing, public speaking and performing still tugged at me. Song and dance in college musicals, choirs and community follies. A recurring announcer gig for radio WELD (Moorefield, WV) as fund raiser MC for Jr. Chamber of Commerce.

I boast skills in public speaking as a Dale Carnegie graduate. Instructed 1500 MGM Sands employees in the The Pacific Institute’s Investment in Excellence course. MC’d numerous events and acted on camera for Hemmeter Enterprises training videos.

I honed my craft for the past year with the renowned Bill Smith at The Acting Studio in Denver where I study voice acting, The Lessac System and have expanded my vocal abilities.
