DJ Plez In The House!

I'm a club DJ who spins all forms of house music: deep, tribal, progressive, funky disco, and plenty of old-school classics. I'm a resident DJ @ Mary's Attic for "Attic-tion Saturdays."

I'm also a journalist of sorts: Assistant Editor at BOI Magazine and the Music Editor of ChicagoPride.com.

After the end of a 15-year relationship, I'm not really back out on the relationship market yet, just trying to make some new friends and get laid every now and then.
