This tugged at me for years as I thought every move towards stability or towards a more “corporate” skillset also meant one move away from my artistic passions. I’m starting to realize they’re more intertwined than I could have ever imagined. And I’m extremely happy about it 💛

My first silent disco experience was a wild one 😂🎧

Seeing people dance, sing, and go crazy with headphones on instead of speakers definitely took some getting used to… but the energy was REAL.

One of the coolest parts as a DJ was watching people switch channels, catch a vibe, and lock in with the music in their own world.

Safe to say I get the hype now 😮‍💨🔥
Definitely won’t be my last silent disco.

Yo! It’s time for a quick update on DJ things :)

I played my first party on only my laptop (twisting knobs via my trackpad hehe) in February of 2025

I got my controller in April of 2025

I played for friends and stayed up till sunrise playing alone in my bedroom more times than I can count

Then, my buddy hired me to play at his bookstore

It wasn’t a huge paid gig, but it was my first one

And it was paid

I was so proud and nervous even though I knew I’d be playing for like 10 people max

I threw out a super last minute invite and to my surprise 20 of my friends showed up

They stayed for hours to listen to me DJ in a bookstore

It warmed my heart and gave me so much confidence

Then, I started showing up to open decks

I met so many lovely people at these open decks, from bar staff, to fellow DJs, to people who just had warm smiles

Two of the guys there liked my set and we hit it off

One got me 2 jobs for wedding DJ companies

One asked me to audition for a residency at this lovely cocktail bar

In January, 30 of my friends showed up to support me at that audition

Some were old friends, some I had just randomly met a couple days prior

I felt so loved and supported that I genuinely almost started crying behind the booth

I’m getting misty eyed writing this right now lol

Later that night, my residency was confirmed

Then, I assisted my first wedding

2 days ago I booked 3 paid gigs in one day

To say I am grateful for this entire journey is an understatement

I have met so many lovely people through this process

The art and privilege it is to take people on a journey throughout a set is something I can’t get enough of and I am extremely grateful for

The funniest part is I have been scared this entire time lol

I almost didn’t show up to that first open deck

But I kept walking towards the doors of that bar despite my mind screaming at me to turn around

For those of you who have supported or booked me during this journey, I love you and I cannot express in words alone how much your support means to me

Find something you love and don’t let go

To get paid for your art is such a crazy feeling

Keep pushing and you can’t be stopped <3

There are no rules here <3

Thank you @alextripi.official and the people over at @petetong_djacademy 🫶 I’m learning so much from y’all rn

#raveculture #djindustry #edmartist

Momentum >>> perfection. Every single time!

I’m going to post multiple a day for the next lil bit since I’m starting to post these today, on the 13th.

So far I have learned SO MUCH in Ableton by doing this. Holy cow. It’s insane how 2 week ago I felt like I barely knew where anything was, and now I feel pretty comfortable working within it. I still need to learn more, duh. But this is progress!

Thanks for listening! If you’re reading this then keep on creating <3 the world needs to see your art :)

Finger drumming update!

It’s not perfect! But that’s not the point :)

The point is gradual and continuous improvement by allowing myself to be trash at something when I first try it out.

Because if we don’t allow ourselves to be bad at something, we never start.

And if we never start, we never get good.

Like ever.

So go try out that thing you’ve been putting off.

Allow yourself to be bad at it at first!

I promise it’s worth it <3#

#fingerdrumming #fingerdrummer #practicepractice

How I practice! And yes! It takes time and effort, but…

It commands results 🎻

#practicedaily #disciplinewins #musicart

I hope you get something in your life that you can obsess over. Whether that’s a new hobby, a form of expression, or rediscovering a part of yourself that you nearly forgot. I hope you create this year <3

Also this is the Novation Launchpad Pro Mk3!

It’s helping me branch out from just DJing to now producing my own music. Let’s see what happens!!
