PERSONAL MESSAGE: HOUSE MUSIC HAS BEEN IN MY SOUL FOR OVER 20 YEARS.  EXPRESSING MYSELF THROUGH SOUND AND MIXING ALLOWS ME TO SHARE THE TRUE PASSION I HAVE FOR THIS MUSIC.

EXPERIENCE: ORIGINALLY FROM NEW YORK CITY, MY FIRST EXPOSURE TO HOUSE MUSIC WAS IN LA.  I WAS HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY DJ’S LIKE BARRY WEAVER, STEVE LORIA, DOC MARTIN, MARQUIS WYATT, ELI STAR, AND DJ TAYLOR.  ONCE I SAW WHAT THEY DID BEHIND THE DECKS , I WANTED TO DO THE SAME.

            AFTER MOVING INTO SAN FRANCISCO IN THE EARLY EPIC 90′S OF CLUBS AND PARTIES I WAS BLOWN AWAY BY THE QUALITY OF THE MUSIC, AND THE INFECTIOUS GROOVES.  WATCHING DJ’S LIKE PETE AVILA, JENO, THOMAS, MARKY, GARTH , JOSH , MARK FARINA REALLY HELPED ME DEFINE MY SOUND AND HELPED ME GO TO THE NEXT LEVEL.  MANY MANY HOURS OF WATCHING, STUDYING THEM AND HOW THEY DID WHAT THEY DID.  IV’E BEEN IN LOVE WITH DJING EVER SINCE.

            OVER THE YEARS I HAVE PROMOTED CLUBS, BUILT CLUBS, AND HAD THE CHANCE TO PLAY ALONGSIDE MANY AMAZING DJ’S.  I NOW DEDICATE MOST OF MY TIME TO MY WIFE AND FAMILY, BUT HAVE ALSO DONE ONLINE RADIO FOR OVER 2 YEARS NOW.
