I was born November 2, 1977 in Elgin, Illinois, which is a suburb of Chicago. I have one sister, Jenny. I went to McKinley Elementary School from Kindergarten to 6th Grade. Then on to Larsen Middle School for 7th and 8th grade. After Larsen I went to Elgin High School, home of the Mighty Maroons, where I graduated in 1995. After High School I attended Elgin Community College for three years, where I received Associate Degrees in both Arts and Sciences, more specifically Business and Communications. After receiving my degrees at ECC I transfered to University of Illinois-Chicago where I am now attending. I am majoring in Communications and am graduating in December of 2000.
I have just recently moved to Chicago, and I live by the Medical District in the Tri-Talor area. It is a great neighborhood and everyone is really friendly. If you're ever going to be in the area let me know...
Besides school, and work, I have lots of other activities that I am involved in. I am an avid music fan, and I enjoy everything from The Beatles to Fat Boy Slim. In addition to being a DJ, I have also worked with a band called THE VOIDin which we did mostly instrumental tracks.
I got my first set of turntables when I was 16, and have been hooked ever since. No matter what was going on in my life I always found time to sit down and mix!!! DJ'ing has opened me up to new and exciting music that I'm sure I would have never gotten into had it not been for DJ'ing. DJ'ing allows me to express myself and I have so much fun doing it. The best part about DJ'ing is seeing all these people loving the music that you are playing. If the world could function as a RAVE the world would be a much happier place DON'T YA THINK!!
Besides my heavy interest in music, I am also busy doing other things as well. Last summer I finished an internship for a major radio station here in Chicago called Windy 100 FM. I was the promotions coordinator and attended promotional events on weekends, and some weekdays. It was a lot of fun and a great oppurtunity for me. I currently work at Liz Baugher Associates. Liz and I go way back, she lived 2 doors down from me for 10 years. She is a photographer representative, which in simple terms is an agent. She is one of the best in the nation and she represents such photographers as Richard Avedon, Peter Zander, and Lisa Spindler...
That's my life in a nutshell....
