Good Music for Great Moments

As a lifelong fan of all kinds of music, from backyard BBQs and simple gatherings, to weddings, graduations, and pool parties — I bring a custom-tailored soundtrack to your event that keeps the energy going.

After decades in the hospitality industry and years as a chef caterer, I'm no stranger to the event planning business. Food and music have always been common threads that connect people from every walk of life. My love of music is just as diverse and multi-cultural as the dishes I served for years.

No longer planning menus, I've switched to curating custom sets and music lists that feel personal and intentional - because they are customized to every event. Just as I did in my hospitality days, I love reading a room, shaping the energy, and creating moments that people remember long after the night is over.

Whether it’s a large event needing an emcee, or an intimate private function where the music should be heard more than the DJ, my goal is simple: keep it chill and relaxed and make it feel effortless, warm, and uniquely yours. Nothing more than playing the music people love - the way they like to hear it.

I look forward to the opportunity to work with you - to make the music at your next event as good as it can be. I'm a people person first - and truly enjoy the process of event planning. Let's make it something special.

Simple, Music‑First Pricing

This covers everything needed for a great‑sounding event:

  • Professional DJ
  • 2 Premium speakers for 100+ people
  • Personal Event Consultation
  • Custom playlist prep
  • Setup + teardown included
  • Travel within 25 miles

Additional hours are available at $175/hr. Travel fees may apply for events outside the local area.

My focus is on the music and sound quality. Additional elements such as dance-floor lighting, subs, uplights and other entertainment features are available upon request and at an additional cost.

On certain occasions, depending on availability, slightly lower base rates are an option for smaller, shorter events that do not require extensive travel, song list preparation, or extra lighting and equipment features.

Perfect for acoustic performers, intimate gatherings, showcases, and small events where clean, clear live sound matters.

  • Includes engineer for sound check and performance
  • High‑quality vocal microphone(s)
  • Premium PA system for vocals + guitar/keys
  • Professional mixing for a polished live sound

Pricing typically starts around $300–$400 for a short set (up to 90 minutes), with additional time available at $100/hr. I prefer to work with acoustic acts consisting of no more than 2-3 artists playing wind or stringed instruments, and very small percussion elements. I do not offer PA services for full bands.
