About Me
Greetings, and thank you for visiting my site. My name is Alberto Murillo, I'm 32 and I go by the name DJ Vetz. DJing is only a weekend business for me--and the occasional weeknight. During the week, I am a Real Estate Agent, Home Mortgage Loan Consultant and bookkeeper (studying to be an accountant--yes I'm still in school). Other than that, I'm a great person who loves dancing Salsa, enjoys camping, snowboarding, traveling, and loves making new friends.
My Philosophy
"One Good Thing About Music, When It Hits You, You Feel No Pain."
-Bob Marley (singer/composer)
"A DJ has the ability to control your emotions, and thats very powerful."
-DJ Latin Prince (DJ)
"I believe everyoe should share what they know with the masses, in this way we can continue progressing as a species, in an innovative and harmonious way; we can all benefit and we can all win, win, win."
-Alberto G. Murillo (aka DJ Vetz)
My Testimony
First and foremost, I have to explain why I am still a DJ. It's quite simple actually, I LOVE MY JOB! The business, and the constant people-to-people interaction brings me peace and happiness...and as they say "if you love your job, you trully never work a day of your life".
I believe in sharing one's knowledge with the rest of the world, I have a huge appreaciation for those that also believe in this philosophy. Which is why I go out my way to fascilitate the coordination of your event, with my experience, knowledge, and skill we can make your event a memorable one.
