Celebrating 2 years of DJing! My real journey began in March 2023 when I joined a £100 six-week course at @hub16_ with @samanthaldn (wild I know) I was new to London, looking to make friends, and fell in love with it immediately. I signed up for the intermediate course straight after. We were all into different genres, so I got exposed to so much music and made some gorgeous friends. I’d tried to learn during lockdown, but it didn’t stick. I think I really needed the human connection—and the Hub gave me that. It felt like the perfect space to grow.

Later that year, I entered the Born n Bread Gala competition 2023 —and I WON . I got the text in a café in Notting Hill, nearly passed out, and celebrated with a cinnamon bun. I still remember that day so clearly. Left work early, got the bus to Peckham, and played hands down one of the best experiences sof my life. I was on after @djsandraomari and before @duoitsduo 🤢Made a lil mistake during the changeover, but we got there in the end It showed me I had more friends in London than I realised—and that there is space for the music I love. the ladies all were so kind they danced with me gave me words of encouragement and still do to this day so I really am grateful for the role they play in my journey.

 @nosleepclub.ie gave me my first paid gig at Longitude for JD. (Again and experience I will cherish dearly) My uncle dropped me off at the festival ALONE —I was bricking it, like wtf was I doing —but the set went off, and everything since has been a dream.

It’s easy to compare yourself especially online, but it’s important to celebrate your own milestones and be proud of the things and steps you take big or small. And do so with LOVE and GRACE. 

This a note to self: keep doing what brings you joy. Be kind. Stop. Smell the roses 💌
