Could anybody help me on how to do mastering for voice over?

I have SoundForge 9.0 and Protools LE 7.4

I've attached a sample mp3 file.

Could you have a look and comment?

How can I improve??

Pull all the boomy/ringy frequencies out with EQ, compress lightly, add a little ambience to taste, compress mildly again, re-EQ just a bit, limit, normalize.

Try that.

Dear "garageband",

Could you have a look at my sample attached?
I'd like to see how it looks like after mastering...

Thank you
