Q: What made you start DJing? 

A: I’ve always enjoyed music.  Basically, I started playing around with a trombone, piano, and eventually a guitar—and decided that none of them really worked for me. So, I started playing around with a console and it kind of clicked.    

 Q: How do you juggle DJing along with going university and friends?

 A: Time management is key to making it all work.  I have to create a pretty strict schedule and stick to it.  You have to be focused and know what is important.  And I live on pretty much no sleep.   

 Q: Where do you find inspiration?

A: Nature, family, and friends.  I can’t really pinpoint it on anything specific.   

Q:What is it like to play alongside other big DJs?

A: It’s like a dream come true than anything else.  I never expected to be playing with such big names in such a short time.
