Premium DJ / Independent Contractor

My goal as a DJ is simple: to give you complete peace of mind so you can actually enjoy your event instead of worrying about it.

I started DJing when I was 13 years old after becoming obsessed with music and the way it brings people together. What started as experimenting with playlists and mixes quickly turned into DJing real events, and I haven’t stopped since. Over the years I realized something important: being a great DJ isn’t just about music, it’s about creating moments people remember.

Today I run Worlds Away DJ as an owner operated company, which means when you book me, you work directly with me from start to finish. No associate DJs. No handoffs. No surprises. I help with planning, timelines, music selection, and making sure everything flows smoothly so you don’t have to stress.

With over 10 years of experience and hundreds of successful events, I bring a mix of professionalism and personality to every celebration. I focus on reading the room, mixing creatively, and making sure every crowd feels included. I also bring backup equipment to every event and have never missed a performance, because reliability matters just as much as talent.

For me, DJing isn’t just pressing play. It’s being part of one of the most important days in someone’s life, and I take that responsibility seriously.

If you’re looking for a DJ who will treat your event like it’s the only one that matters, let’s do this thing!!

Photographer

Photography began as a hobby in my free time, but after taking a photography course and developing my skills, it has grown into a true passion. I am drawn to capturing meaningful moments and creating images that tell a story—because every photograph preserves a memory that can be cherished for years to come.

Outside of photography, I enjoy competitive dance, working with horses, and traveling to experience new places and perspectives.

Based in Monticello, Minnesota.
