Not everyone understands house music. It's a spiritual thing, a soul thing, a body thing

About Me

I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a degree in Marketing and then moved out to LA to pursue a career in the music business. So far i've helped create a dance record label called 3300 Records which is a part of Warner Bros. Records and I also helped coordinate all the dance remixes for WB's artists. I recently left WB to work full time with DJ Dan. Together, we're working to build and brand his record label InStereo.
Anyone who knows me knows that music is my life. Specifically house music, but i love all types of music. House, Hip Hop, Rock, Jazz, Funk, Blues, Classical, etc...I think that the more music you listen too, the more well rounded of a person you are. Don't be close minded. As a dj, i love being able to expose people to new cutting edge dance music and i love the energy that i can create in a room full of crazy people dancing around like no one is watching. There's no better feeling in the world.
I believe in positivity and i think that negativity is contagious. I don't surround myself with negative people. I also believe that if you want something bad enough, you have the power to create it.
I'm on this site to meet as many people as possible that are involved in the house music community. And if you're a house music producer trying to get heard, send me your music for consideration on InStereo.
