- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My goal is to understand what you want and then give it to you to my 100% best ability. I have a lot of experience working with different areas, cultures, music preferences. I love my job and love learning from every experience and improving my game. I'm experienced on what to expect with the guests and prepare a variety of techniques and activities that I can use any time I see an opportunity to bring more fun and entertainment into a situation. Of course I want to learn from you first what you want for the party as far as music, people, events, and level of interaction, so I can put a plan together and be as prepared as possible and make things flow smoothly. I'll touch base with you during the evening to keep the timing of things to your liking and get your OK to avoid doing something that might rub you or your guests the wrong way. I am an easy-going but detail-oriented person, professional, big on communication, very responsive and organized. When it's time to perform in front of guests I get amped up and I honestly lose myself in the moment and it's really all about doing whatever is needed and giving people what they want at that moment in time. Whether it's getting in with the crowd to hype people up on the mic, getting line dances going, creating tender & magical, or enticing different groups out to the dance floor, I'm always trying to bring the party. It's really about reading the crowd, being prepared, and not holding back from giving it your all. That is how I approach every gig. I look forward to talking with you and have a wonderful day!
