I took an eighteen month vacation, to persue other adventures, when MIRAGE closed. But, I'm back and I try to bring the freshest blend of current hits and underground vibes to the gay community and Chattanooga. Chattanooga, has been my home since 1994. That same year I met my mentor and now long time friend, Russell Snyder. Immediately, upon hearing Russell's intense blend of gay house and hi-energy dance, I knew that I had found my calling. That is to say, make people enjoy themselves through music.

Over the years, I have had many influences, which are too numerous to list, some of the more notable include Russell, Steve, Leigh, Sydney Brooks, Isis, Claire D'Shey, Glimmer, Josh, Kelly, Samantha, Tina and David. Two other influences who helped mold myself and continually push me to new heights are Buffy Scott and Shana Tinsley.
