DJ Peachez was born and raised in Central Virginia. She is a graduate of JMU where she majored in Marketing, minored in Music Industry and was an Honors Scholar. During her 6 years as a DJ, she has worked hard to cultivate her talent and keep the true art of hip hop music alive. Whenever she touches the turntables, you can see her love for the art and the joy of moving a crowd.

DJ Peachez first touched the turntables during her freshman year of college in September of 2000 at James Madison University. She stopped by the college radio station and spoke with the urban director, who graciously took time every week to teach her the basics of turtabilism: how to scratch, back up (repeat phrases) and mix songs. She saw DJing as an opportunity to release stress and make money to pay for her tuition and books. She decided on the name Peachez, since that was the nickname her relatives gave her (because of her light skin tone).

By Junior year, she was performing for events and shows all over JMUs campus and DJing for Another Sure Shot Entertainment, a booking company from Virginia Beach, VA. Through that company, she opened up for the Clipse at Virginia Unions Homecoming and BET Comic View Comedians. She has also performed at Lynchburg College, UVA, and VCUs Homecoming 2006 at Mr. Bojangles. She did such a good job at the VCU homecoming party that Quest from Atlantic Records named her "First Lady of the Cap City." She has also performed at JMUs homecoming for 6 years in a row.

In addition to colleges, she has performed at various locations in Norfolk, Lynchburg, and Richmond, VA. This list includes, The Spectrum (Lynchburg, VA), Fevers (Farmville, VA), Mr. Bojangles, Club 321, Tonic, The Matrixx Room, The Cherry Lounge (Richmond, VA). She also performed at Afram Fest in Norfolk, VA (Memorial Day Weekend) 2 years in a row.

DJ Peachez has over 5 years of radio experience. She has been on JMU College radio (WXJM), Charlottesville public radio (WNRN), 106.5 The Beat, and, she is currently on Power 92 (Radio One) in Richmond, VA.

DJ Peachez is looking forward to further developing her craft as a radio, mixtape, battle, and concert DJ. In addition, she wants to do music production and concert promotion. Whatever the future may hold, she will continue to stay true to the art and move crowds.
