In 2014 I working under my mentor Charlie Phresh
As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?
Being a La Habra, California native, my music was very much influenced by my parents who listened to a lot of R&B. Music has always played a big part in my life as an outlet. In earlier years, I would produce music and sell it online. 2014 was the year I began my DJ career, simply because whenever people would have house parties, they would ask me to mix and play the music. I fell in love. The deciding factor that made me want to DJ happened in West Hollywood, California in 2013. I was walking down the street and some people invited me to hang out on party bus for a birthday party. When I got on the bus, I noticed people were reserved, so I decided to plug in my phone and play some songs. As soon as I did that, everyone started to dance and have a good time! That’s when I realized I could connect to people through music. In April 2021 I relocated to San Diego, California.

The way I built my audience on social media was by meeting people in real life. I am a people person and like making genuine connections. People always ask for my social media while/after a performance. I never hessitate to give out my social media because you never know who you are going to meet, that could be your next client.
Where do you think you get most of your clients from?
The best source of new clients for me is people hearing me play live/word of mouth. People experiencing one of my sets is one of the main sources of getting new clients. Those people that have heard me and then reccomending me to someone else is another source. They basically go hand in hand.
