If you’ve seen me at a party, I’m probably grinning behind the console or on the floor, vibing with everyone. Dancing came first for me, DJing just followed. I’ve played everywhere from Goa to Kolkata, always chasing that groove. My mentor keeps me sharp, and yeah, I’m always up for silly challenges like balancing toilet paper to get my steps right. For me, it’s about connecting – music, dancers, all of us, one big vibe. ### My work - **Afro-Latin DJ for Parties & Festivals**: I spin Salsa, Bachata, Kizomba, Mambo, and Jive for social nights, festivals, and private events. - **Salsa Social Nights Host**: I run regular Salsa social nights like 'Noche Caliente' in Mumbai and Thane, sometimes kicking off with a free workshop. - **Dance Workshops & Classes**: I teach Mambo footwork workshops and partner-work sessions, helping dancers find their own style and have fun.
