How I got here
I came up in the Los Angeles music scene as a composer and promoter, working with Interscope and G-Unit Records. That was the education — learning what a record does to a room, and that the crowd tells you what to play next if you're paying attention.
Then years of weddings and corporate events across the Pacific Northwest: ballrooms, barns, yacht charters, hotel galas, and plenty of receptions where the timeline went sideways and nobody noticed because it got fixed quietly.
Now that ear is going to Orlando and Tampa. I'm based in Central Florida from May 2027 and booking weddings and events there for 2027 and beyond.
Who shows up
The person you talk to is the person who shows up.
Many of the larger companies in Orlando and Tampa run rosters of twenty or more DJs and assign yours closer to the date. It's a legitimate model, but it means the person who earned your confidence often isn't the person doing the job.
There's no roster here — which is a limitation as much as a pitch. One event a day, so peak dates go early, and sometimes the answer is that I'm not available. You'll hear that straight away rather than get routed to someone else.
How I work
One point of contact
You email, you get me. The person who answers your first question is the person setting up in your venue.
Planning happens early
A music questionnaire with a real do-not-play list, a timeline built with you, and direct contact with your venue about load-in, sound limits, and end times.
Ceremony sound is never an upsell
It's in every wedding package. The ceremony is where sound matters most and fails most often — charging extra for it never made sense to me.
One vendor for sound, lighting, and photo booth
One setup, one invoice, and nothing dropped in the gap between two vendors who each assumed the other had it.
