The DJ Behind The decks
HOW IT ALL STARTED
I didn’t start DJing because I dreamed of celebrity and fame. I just wanted to be part of the party!
At first, it was practical - skip the lineups, get behind the booth, and do what I saw the guys doing. But over time, it became something much deeper. DJing turned into a doorway into human nature - how people gather, who feels included, who doesn’t and how music shifts the entire atmosphere.
My events often span three generations in one room. Managing everyone's mood through music all at once - elders, families, friends, the plus ones - isn’t easy. It’s a skill. It’s non-verbal communication. And it’s one of the most challenging and beautiful parts of what I do.
I'm also a filmmaker.
Music has become my way of studying connection in real time. Not in theory - but by lived experience. Watching people relax, reminisce, laugh, move, and connect - that’s what keeps me here.
fun facts
My brain automatically categorizes any songs by “cocktail hour,” “dinner,” “dance floor.” and personal listening
When I watch something alone, I prefer the sound up and with captions/subtitles on so nothing is missed.
I'm a foodie - I care about where food comes from, how it's prepared and how it's experienced, not just about eating to get full.
