I am here for Networking

About Me

New Orleans Certified is an annual party that celebrates New Orleans. NOC was born out of a philosophy I call Life's A Party, a project I've been working on to feature amazing musicians, get people together and have a fucking awesome time.

All of the bands involved have given me countless good times in New Orleans, and I feel like repaying them for all the fun and hard work by bringing new people to listen, dance, and enjoy. I've been blessed with good people in my life, and I love getting them together. I'll continue to find any excuse to throw a party. So if you like to dance, get funky, listen to music, party and be part of an inspiration and culture, then you should come to one of my parties. You won't be disappointed.
Feel free to subscribe to my blog for information on upcoming events.
