- How did you get started doing this type of work?
My journey into the world of DJing began with a chance encounter at a family gathering. It was a vibrant summer evening, and my cousin, an experienced DJ, took the stage, transforming the backyard into a pulsating dance floor. Mesmerized by the energy and the way he effortlessly curated the atmosphere, I found myself captivated. In that moment, a spark ignited within me. The allure of mixing beats and creating an unforgettable musical experience resonated deeply. Inspired by my cousin's artistry, I decided to embark on my own DJing adventure. Starting small, I dipped my toes into the scene by spinning tunes at intimate house parties. The joy of seeing people lose themselves in the music fueled my passion, and I began honing my skills, expanding my repertoire, and investing in quality equipment. As word spread about the electrifying house parties, invitations poured in for small events, and I seized every opportunity to share my love for music. From birthdays to gatherings, the rhythm of the crowd became my compass, guiding me through the beats and melodies that connected us all. The next chapter saw me stepping into the neon-lit world of clubs. The transition brought new challenges and opportunities, pushing me to evolve and refine my craft. The dance floors grew, and so did my ambition. Soon, the beats echoed not only in local clubs but also at private events up and down the East Coast. Each gig was a unique chapter in my DJing story, with every event leaving an indelible mark on my journey. From the intimate gatherings that sparked it all to the pulsating energy of crowded clubs and the sophistication of private events, I embraced the diverse tapestry of musical experiences. Through dedication, countless hours of practice, and an unwavering love for the art, I transformed from an inspired observer at a family party to a DJ weaving music magic across the East Coast. The journey has not been just about music; it was a testament to the power of passion and the ability of beats to connect souls, one track at a time. And so, my story as a DJ continues, with every beat marking a new chapter in the symphony of my life.
