To derive maximum pleasure from my radio show: Don’t be a snob! Have an open mind about music and let it take you back and feel things from when it came.
When I’m not DJing I can be found: Writing, reading, taking photos, dancing, singing, dating, dining, laughing, being mommy… living life to the fullest.
Secret superpower I possess: My kisses have healing properties.
