About
With over a decade of experience as a DJ, you can rest assured knowing that you are working with the best of the best. Whether it is an intimate dinner for you and your friends, or a festival for 10,000 screaming fans, I will provide a memorable performance no matter your needs. My vast knowledge of music allows me to accommodate any style, from Top 40, Hip-Hop, Disco, Funk and Dance Music, to Rock, Motown, Salsa, Afrobeat, Reggae, Samba, Soca, Bhangra and any other genre you can imagine.
I have performed at events in over 30 countries across the globe for a variety of brands, celebrities, athletes, socialites and moguls, including Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Adidas, Justin Timberlake, Quincy Jones, Leonardo DiCaprio, Justin Timberlake, Jay-Z, John Legend, Diddy, etc. I have made numerous appearances on MTV, BET, SiriusXM, BBC and many other media outlets.
Originally from NYC, I initially earned my stripes as a resident DJ at the world-famous Marquee nightclub. Since then, I have played at every type of event imaginable: Fashion Week events in Milan, Music Festivals in the Amazon Rainforest, Weddings at the Rockefeller Estate and private Birthday Dinners for professional athletes.
I most enjoy connecting with people and providing a therapeutic experience through music, custom tailored to the specific nuances of their event. Music can elicit every type of emotion in people, connecting them to different memories in their lives, and when selected properly, can create a life-changing moment.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I prefer to meet face to face to build a rapport and get a feel for their personality, as well to hear them describe their vision for their event.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BS in Broadcast Journalism & Music Business, and have performed at over a thousand events throughout my career (weddings, dinner parties, birthdays, clubs, festivals, pool parties, fashion shows, brand activations, concerts, fundraisers, etc). I have also produced hundreds of my own events, so I understand the logistics behind planning a successful event.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your services? If so, please share the details here.
One size does not fit all when it comes to event pricing. Prices depend on a few variables: the size/scale of the event, the duration of services needed, the location (local or destination), the technical needs for the sound equipment and any other specific requests on behalf of the client.
How did you get started in this business?
I originally started out hosting my own radio show, promoting parties and producing my own events in college. I have been doing this full-time ever since.
What types of customers have you worked with?
The entire spectrum: from corporate brands (Dolce & Gabbana, Armani, Adidas, Nike), celebrities (Leonardo DiCaprio, Diddy, Justin Timberlake, Jennifer Lopez, Mark Ronson, Jay-Z) and charities (Greenpeace, Operation Smile, Save the Children) to regular everyday people and friends.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Be clear about the type of event you are looking to produce. You are creating a unique experience for your guests, so the more clear and detailed your vision, the better you can communicate your needs to potential performers/talent. I would advise to do your research on what type of DJ and music you will need for your event. Not all DJs are created equal and unfortunately, like most things in life, you get what you pay for.
What questions should customers think through before talking to pros about their needs?
Communication is everything, so the more details you can provide the DJ/Talent, the better experience you will have with your event. Customers should know the basic information about their event: date, how many people they expect for the event, the dimensions/size of the venue, the amount of hours they will require for the DJ/Talent to perform and they should have an idea of the overall itinerary for the event (broken down by the hour). It also helps tremendously if customers provide a list of song requests to better give the DJ an idea of their expectations.
