First Post!  This has been a long time coming and it’s finally here… DJGurl.com to the rescue.  My name is Makayla also known as DJ K La V.  The “V” is for my middle name, Voncille.  I have been a professional DJ for over 10 years playing hundreds of DJ gigs and counting.  I can always expect that someone will make their way over to my DJ booth, mid DJ mix, to ask me some kind of DJ related question. Many people inquire about my DJ services, some are curious to know what it’s like being a female DJ, some have questions about DJ equipment, and others just want to talk music.  From that, came the idea of creating DJGurl.com.  I don’t mind sharing my opinions and experiences with those who want to know.  I’ve experienced a lot as a DJ, and I am so glad to now finally add this website (my internet property) to my business.  Give me your feedback, what would you like to know or discuss about music and/or DJ’ing?  

Fun Facts about me:

• My first piece of DJ equipment was a hand-me-down Vestex PMC-05 PRO II DJ mixer 
• My second pieces of DJ equipment I purchased all around the same time. This included a pair of Technic 1200 turntables I found on craigslist for $400 in-total, plus a used SL1 Rane Serato box for $80. I also bought a pair of Harbinger APS 12′ speakers on sale at Guitar Center along with some Sony headphones that were under $50.
• My third piece of DJ equipment was a Numark NS7 DJ controller, the NS7FX controller panel, and the travel case to go with it. (approx. $1300) 
• I started DJ’ing at 25 years old
• I currently use a Macbook Pro 13′ running the latest version of Serato DJ
• I produce House music mainly using Logic Pro X in my spare time (if ever I have “spare time”)
• Afro House music, Afrobeats/Afro-Pop, Soca, Hip Hop, and throwback RnB are my favorite genres to play
• My DJ name was inspired by the French saying “C’est la vie” which means “that’s life” (it is what it is, is something I always like to say.) 
• I love to dance, read, meditate, sing, write, workout, listen to interesting podcasts, and binge-watch cool Youtube Channels… I also love cats, astrology, good vibrations, traveling, colorful art pieces, suspenseful movies, drinking tea, and organic foods.
• I’m a certified group fitness instructor/coach.
• I love talking about and researching nutrition, herbs, and anything about the human body (I will be sharing my findings with you from time to time.)
