Mike Weldon was born and raised in Des Moines, Iowa, and currently resides in Ames. As a senior in Hotel, Restaurant and Institution Management at Iowa State University, Mike hopes to someday work in and eventually own a resort.

Mike's favorite cuisine is Italian or Chinese and he likes his movies swift and violent - Saving Private Ryan, Resident Evil and Batman Begins-the exceptions being anything with Michael Chiklis or Jessica Alba in it. His '03 Lancer Evolution is stocked with plenty of rock, but he's open to other styles.

Mike's major aspirations include traveling the world, and he'll be cutting down on costs by staying in the resorts he owns. On top of DJing, Mike is part owner of an import garage and works in a hotel. When he saw our ad seeking DJ trainees he wondered if it was a fake, but the next thing he knew he was doing something he'd always been interested in.

His favorite event is the college dance party because, "No offense, but a little beer makes everyone dance." Even without the beer, Mike can get the crowd going. "I've never had an event where we didn't have a good time." Mike's ability to get the crowd going can lead to unexpected results - "The groom mooned his best man in front of everyone. That was a crazy wedding" (note to grooms: do not try this at home).

Any spare time left in Mike's life goes to his girlfriend, but he says a brand-new Harley Davidson is higher on his list of priorities than any sort of ring. When he can get away from work and school for a weekend, he tries to work on his car and motorcycle and cuddle - he didn't specify if he meant with the car or the motorcycle.
