Introduction: I actually began studying music when I was in college at UCLA. I also belonged to Sigma Chi Fraternity where I began honing my craft by mixing great songs. I have over 30K songs and am intimate with almost every genre of recorded music including: Big Band, Swing, Oldies, Rock N Roll, Pop, Motown, Doo-Wop, Classic Rock, Disco, New Wave 80's, Hip Hop, Alternative, Latin, Jazz, Soul, Hawaiian and Christian. I am interactive and teach the latest dances. I feel the flow of your event and let the party happen and jump start it if needed. I love the music. I love how great songs transport us to another time and place filled with memories. Most events I DJ are for 3-5 hours or 180-300 minutes. I guarantee that each song played is not only a great song but a classic great song.

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    Since I was a child music has held an important place in my social life. At UCLA I joined Sigma Chi Fraternity and we hosted several 200 person theme parties. I trained under several top DJ's and music professors. My friends raved about my music mixes. Then in 1988, I met motivational guru Tony Robbins personally in his home in Del Mar. He convinced me to follow my heart's passion and pursue a career that I love. Two weeks later I was in business and within 5 years I was a full time professional mobile DJ. Over 1000 events later, I am still going strong and I absolutely LOVE what I do!!! Thanks, Tony.

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    I create a 2 page entertainment itinerary for your event. I suggest great songs for special moments. I tastefully and elegantly MC your event and make all the important announcements (I am bilingual in Spanish). I teach you and your guests fun group dances. I accept your requests and song lists. I meet with you in advance to help you plan your event. I arrive on time and dress in a black tuxedo, if so desired.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Ask me about me experience and references. What genres of music do you play? Can you mix multiple genres easily and smoothly? What type of equipment do you use? Do you have back-up equipment? Do you MC and make announcements? Will you help me plan and coordinate my event? Do you do anything besides play music? Do you belong to any professional associations? How many events have you done and how many years experience do you have? Do you charge for travel and set up time?
