When I think back to my first musical experiences, I recall being surrounded by 90s dance hits. I discovered a love for house/trance music through my parents listening to Radio, CDs and watching MTV.

At the young age of 11, I joined a youth centre where one of the volunteers was a highly successful Manchester DJ. I was inspired and bought my first set of decks and was mentored weekly, creating podcasts and mixes to upload to soundcloud & Youtube. 7 months later was my first event; a 21st birthday and then DJing at weddings, school proms and open days, private events and parties followed.

At the age of 16 I secured my first weekly residency whilst completing a 2 year Media Diploma and achieved certainty of my career pathway. I combined my skills in Media , Music and Djing when i was 18 and was accepted at ‘The University of Salford’ (Media City) studying Television and Radio production. I enjoyed opportunities of DJ residency’s in bars in central Manchester and gigs in the North West. This Included supporting Hayley Zalassi and Hilit Kolet at Distrikt Nightclub in Leeds, The England football lionesses event and Josh Butler at Element 51 in Bolton.

As I market myself as a versatile DJ bringing a wide musical knowledge tailored to the event I have been hired by a variety of clubs, bars, restaurants, hotels, boats and to provide entertainment at private and corporate events for brands and businesses across the UK. I have presented Radio shows, liaised and played alongside saxophonists, drummers and singers.

For the past 3 years I have headlined/hosted NYE at The Lawn Club, Spinningfields, Manchester. This included my individual DJ sets and collaborating with various musician’s. This successfully challenged my love for event and performance management.

Now that I am 21 years old and have six years of professional experience under my belt: I have packed dance floors, created nights to remember, earned crucial knowledge and confidence that will accelerate my journey as a DJ, Radio presenter, Producer and Event manager.

Can’t wait to meet you soon!
