What inspired you to DJ?

My love of music paired with my love of bringing people together made DJing the perfect career choice.

What is on your playlist right now?

Old school R&B is always on my playlist. You’ll most likely hear some 80s-2000s DJ edits during my Union sets.

What is your favourite thing about Union Station?

I love seeing the melting pot of Toronto in one place. There are so many lives that connect in Union Station, even for a moment. I think bringing music to the space adds a little something to each person’s day.

What’s something surprising about you that people may not know?

I’m a mom! I have a 12 year old son. He pops up on my socials from time to time, but I think people are shocked whenever they learn that I’m a mother and especially when they see how tall he is – he’s 5’9”!
