Alan had the ideal DJ training. It started with a job offer from Disney World in Florida. After a vigorous interview process and even more vigorous training as an entertainer, he worked as MC and DJ at Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings. He learned how to project his voice so he could be heard over a crowd and gradually developed a style of his own. During his time at Disney he learned many multicultural songs and customs.

After several years on the job the Internet boom, or more specific, a start-up company in California lured him to the Golden State. Following the Internet bubble burst, Alan ran the DJ department of an entertainment agency. He began his own business in 2005. He loves the diversity of the job and prides himself on being able to adapt to any situation and on pleasing the most sophisticated clients. From teaching interactive dances to hosting games at Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, Alan has the personality to do each job with elegance and style. In addition to his work as a DJ, he is band leader and drummer of his own small band.

Alan loves to meet with people and, together with other top DJs, he believes in a thorough consultation and an extensive planning session. Depending on the client's preference, he will interact with the guests or just play the requested music.

Clients accord Alan a certificate of excellence. "He not only helped with the music selection, he helped to make our wedding flow. He knew the layout of the venue beforehand. He constantly monitored the guests, reading their body language, and chose the music accordingly." "We received so many compliments for the great music Alan played; and we could tell these comments came from the heart."
