I love music, so DJ'ing is definitely a lot more fun than work! You can count on me to make sure everyone has a great time! I've been a professional DJ for over 10 years, and have over 30 years of experience as a professional musician too. Throughout that time, I have done countless weddings, proms, reunions, birthday/anniversary/holiday/NYE/company parties, car shows, festivals, school events, etc. By combining my experience with a constant enthusiasm to stay relevant musically, and by listening to what you want, I can create a unique atmosphere that will put a smile on every face!
