From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


I currently live in Port Charlotte, FL. One of my main hobbies is music. I've been in the music business in both radio and as a club DJ for 17 years combined. I've studied and analyzed the Billboard charts since I was young and enjoy using my musical knowledge to help improve and add to Wikipedia articles, especially regarding music. I especially enjoy making music and song articles more complete by adding chart positions and peak dates, according to Billboard Magazine's Hot 100 chart and Joel Whitburn books.

Bio

[edit]

I was born in Puerto Rico and raised in Northern Virginia in Fairfax, VA. After graduating from Fairfax High School (Fairfax, Virginia) my family moved to Port Charlotte, FL. I then spent 14 years in Sarasota, FL before moving to Tampa, FL.

Music Career

[edit]

I volunteered at radio station WMJR in Warrenton, VA in 1986 while still in high school as well as WEEJ in Port Charlotte, FL from 1987-1988. After a few years I realized I could make a living doing something that was fun to me and began disc jockey'ing at various venues and clubs throughout Sarasota and Bradenton, FL and at a few clubs in Tampa. As of late 2009 I have decided to take a break from spinning.

I've always been a music and chart geek, being an avid music collector particularly the top hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. I'm most fond of music from the 60s through 90s. Music will always be my true love!

I'd like to use my vast musical and chart knowledge to help out Wikipedia in as many ways as possible for accuracy.
