It’s a question that takes me back to my roots, to those early days of DJing and discovering my passion for creating unforgettable experiences. It’s a story of hard work, dedication, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. But most importantly, it’s a story about the power of believing in something and having the courage to make it a reality.
My DJ journey started in a pretty unexpected way. It was the end of high school, and I honestly had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. A best friend of mine was DJing for a local company, and one day he just turned to me and said, ‘Hey man, you have pretty good taste in music, ever thought about being a DJ?’ I’d gone to a few events with him and was definitely intrigued.
Funny thing is, I actually had a bit of a head start. Back in middle school, I used to tag along with the father of a friend of mine to events he DJed. So, I guess you could say the seed was planted way back then!
Anyway, I took my friend up on the offer and started DJing for that same company. After a few years, I headed down to Florida to study recording engineering at Full Sail University. That’s where I really learned the ropes. I met a group of guys who were all professional DJs, and they became my mentors, showing me how to truly mix and perform.
When I graduated and came back home, I was determined to perfect my craft. For the next 14 years, I DJed over 1,000 events – everything from clubs and bars to weddings, proms, and mitzvahs. It was an incredible experience. Every event was different – new people, new venues, new vibes. I loved the challenge of creating a unique musical journey for each crowd, building energy, and making sure everyone had an amazing time. It taught me that DJing is an art form, a way to connect with people and create lasting memories
Full Sail was honestly one of the best experiences of my life! I met so many amazing people and learned so much from all the classes and instructors. It was a total immersion in the world of audio. I learned everything from the science behind sound to how songs are structured. We got to actually record bands, mix tracks, and then master them – the whole nine yards.
Another really cool part of the program was focused on audio post-production. We learned how to record foley (those sound effects they add to movies), ADR for vocals, and even how to mix in a surround sound environment. Our final project was redoing the audio for a trailer for Terminator: Salvation – it was such a blast, and seeing the final product was incredibly rewarding.
Of course, I also learned how to be a live sound engineer. That meant mastering everything from mixing front of house and monitors to understanding how speakers and amplifiers work. The goal was to learn how to get a great sound, whether you’re in a small room or a massive outdoor venue. That part of my education has definitely been the most relevant to what I do now at Extraordinary, but honestly, it all played a part in getting me to where I am today.
I started Extraordinary because I was tired of seeing inconsistent service quality, outdated equipment, and a general lack of personalized attention to clients. Many companies seemed to prioritize booking events over building relationships and exceeding expectations. I knew we could do better by focusing on the details that truly elevate an event – innovative design, cutting-edge technology, and talented entertainers who know how to connect with a crowd. To change that, I developed a system for maintaining top-notch equipment, implemented rigorous crew training programs with an emphasis on client communication, and created a culture of excellence at every level of the company. This commitment to meticulous attention to detail and a strong team culture has fueled extraordinary growth, taking us from approximately 80 events in our first year to around 2,000 annually just 8 years later.
