• ULTRA EUROPE 2025

    Time flies! I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since I visited the sparkling shores of Split, Croatia to host Ultra Europe’s live stream “Ultra Live”. While Split’s best attractions remain the same over the (hundreds of) years – Diocletian’s Palace, the gorgeous Mediterranean Sea, and the Riva Promenade – Ultra Music Festival has changed. The festival is now three days, it starts and ends much later, and is at a different venue, Park Mladezi. I’ll resist the urge to say, “I haven’t changed a day,” because I absolutely have! Hopefully viewers will agree I have changed in a good way… like the fine rose you drink on the Rive Promenade.

    I will be interviewing many new DJ’s, but also interviewing ones that I started my career with back at Ultra Miami 2012. I’m excited for the opportunity to be back with the team!

    Catch the stream LIVE Friday July 11- Sunday July 13, starting each day at 10:30pm local time – 4:30pm Eastern US – 1:30 pm Pacific US at Youtube.com/UMFTV.

    See you soon from Croatia!

  • Three Times is a Charm at AOL

    This week I put my sports, music, and fashion hats on for Shandy Media’s news properties, which are broadcast on AOL On, Huffington Post, and other outlets. Below is a collection of my favorite stories of the week. I wrote, produced, and hosted them.

    … Just a warning, some of the stories are not for the faint of heart. 😉

     

    Is Beyonce Successful Because She’s a Virgo? – Stereotude Music News

     

    WWE Boss Vince McMahon Sharted Himself — The Fumble Sports

     

    The Secret to Jared Leto’s Academy Award-Winning Look – Modamob (Fashion)

  • Music vs Sports

    It was double duty this week for me at AOL On and Huffington Post. I usually bring the entertainment and music news to my online friends, but this time around I filled in for Crystal Marie- who also happens to be my roomie- to bring the dudes their sports news on The Fumble. Yes, that’s one of the benefits of having a roommate who works at the same place as you; when you need a replacement, all you have to do is knock on the next door over.

    I must say, I had a lot of fun switching between the two as it really brought together my two loves. Outside of my videos for AOL, I usually find myself in the sports world for Bleacher Report and CBS Sports. And, of course, I am living and breathing (dance) music all over the world with ULTRA and MTV. See, I even bring the high top wedge sneakers to the studio.

    So, which do you like better? The music or sports stories?
