FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing system is not too complicated. However, my rates do vary based on the type of event, the location, the numbers of hours of service, the amount of equipment that is needed for the event and the distance of travel to and from the event location. For larger events, to make things run absolutely smoothly with no problems, I hire assistants to help me with set-up and break down of equipment so my rates will change based on how much man power I need to bring with me but typically I'm able to handle most events on my own.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated with a double major in Business Management and Radio, Television and Film at San Jose State University and worked in the radio industry for approximately 9 years. I don't know if this would be considered training or education but I also owned and operated a DJ School for many years which was located in San Jose California.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I began DJing when I was very young in high school. I saw my first DJ at a school dance and from there I was hooked. I practiced for several years just playing in my garage. Eventually I got my first gig DJing a birthday party at a friends house and then from there I DJed my first high school dance at my own high school when I was in 11th grade. I DJed parties and events all throughout my years in college attending San Jose State which helped me pay for my school bills and tuition. From there, the rest is history!
