Jade is a sound healer, gong specialist, reiki practitioner, music producer, and DJ.
Spending his childhood in Central Illinois, Jade found electronic music early on while spending time at a club in Peoria, setting the stage for a lifelong love affair with music. As his interest in music and the club industry progressed, he began working for, managing, promoting, and performing both live and DJ sets at many of Chicago’s biggest nightclubs including Karma, Crobar, Spybar, Sound Bar, The Mid and most recently, Primary. As his passion for electronic music continued to develop, his focus became directed towards his production and DJ performances, earning him residencies throughout Chicago.
While continuing to work on his music, he began to study energy healing and the psychology behind music, as well as vibroacoustics in order to shape the fundamentals of his musical direction. With his nightclub days behind him, Jade now spends his time working as a sound healer, performing gong washes, shamanic journeys, and meditations throughout the midwest. He continues to refine his DJ style to fit a much more conscious lifestyle with a fusion of organic beats and melodies along with infectious grooves and basslines.
With a lifetime ahead of him and a body of work behind, it is safe to say that Jade will continue to push the envelop in the pursuit of creating energy through music.
Jade is also a sound and vibrational healer, gong specialist, licensed massage therapist, reiki practitioner, music producer, mindfulness and meditation teacher/coach and DJ from Chicago, IL now living in AZ. He is the founder and creative director of Sedona Az based Project Manifest and co-founder and creative director for Chicago based Curating Mindfulness.

Lisa:
Sound Healing (Nada Yoga) frequency vibration helps to shift our state of being (physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually) back to our natural state of harmony. This is frequency medicine, bringing a vibrational massage all the way down to the cellular level to unwind the mind and bring deep relaxation and inner peace. In these states of consciousness, participants may experience enhanced creative vision, self and soul learnings, and release from all things exacerbated by stress.

Jade:
Music and energy healing have always been major factors in Jade’s life, yet he had somehow always kept the two worlds separate until the day he discovered the gong and it’s healing powers. Since that day Jade has been busy honing his craft as a “sound healer”, fully immersing himself in the healing community, studying the principals of sound Healing, vibroaccoustics, meditation and massage therapy.
In addition to performing gong washes, sound journeys and meditations regularly, he also sees clients for individual sound healings, energy work and massage.
