* [[Ascended Fanboy]]: Though he got into it pretty late, he was a massive fan of Dragonball Z and therefore [[Jumped At the Call|jumped at the chance to voice an anime character.]] ''ANY'' anime character.
* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: With [[Fullmetal Alchemist (
* [[Badass]]: A lot of character he voices fit into this.
** [[Badass Baritone]]: A good factor as to why his vocal performances are so effective for this type of character.
* [[Celebrity Resemblance]]: Vocal example; he sounds very similar to [[Dan Green]]. Probably at least part of the reason why he took over Dan Green's roles of Knuckles and Storm in the Sonic series.

** Considering one of his most recent roles was [[Bleach|Char]][[Drag Queen|lotte]]...mission accomplished.
