My Top 20 Songs
My Story
I guess I got my start djing when I was around 9 years old. That is when my mom would make me run up and down the stairs to change a record for her. Whether is was her favorites, like Sha Na Na or some classic Motown, I grew up playing music and loving music. Fast forward several years later, my love of music turned into a passion and a new job, djing. I started out a as roadie for my best friend, tagging along with him to weddings he djed. After a while I began to think, hey I could do this. After long hours of practice, practice, and more practice, I started my professional dj career at the Loose Moose Saloon in Baldwin.
Fast forward to today, I have djed around 400 weddings and countless events in my over 18 years experience djing. I have been voted as "Best of Weddings" 4 times on theknot.com (2013, 2014, 2016 and 2017). I am also in theknot.com "Best of Weddings Hall of Fame." Book me for your wedding or next party, I promise I will not disappoint.
