Mr. Jonathan was a freshman and needed some spending money. He found a job as a floor guard at the local roller rink. The DJ called in sick and like a scene from a cheesy 80's movie the manager pulled him out and threw him head first into the DJ booth with less than a thirty second tutorial on how things worked. Mr. Jonathan was hooked. After two months, the private party business was born. In less than one year, Jonathan worked his way up to the top spot.
Years later, he branched out on his own, assuming the moniker of "Mr. Jonathan". Fast forward to today: www.MrJonathanIsMyDJ.com is now an established music, M.C., and event production service.
