Richard Summersett Jr.

Richard was just 15 years old when he got his first experience as a DJ, thanks to his dad who brought him along to a wedding he was performing. Richard didn’t realize it then, but that day marked the beginning of an incredible career that would change his life forever.

Richard is the kind of guy that you just can’t help but like when you meet him. He’s the epitome of a people person, and helping add life to the party comes naturally to him. He studied the performing arts in college and found himself enchanted by the experience of entertaining crowds.

It was around then that he noticed a Facebook post his friend Seth Michaels had made from the bow of a cruise ship he was DJing on the Mediterranean Sea.

Richard messaged Seth asking him if he could ride along on a gig with him one day. Seth had a wedding coming up back home on New Year’s Eve and asked Richard if he’d like to come to that. It was at the Addison Oaks Golf and Country Club in Leanord, Michigan.

That first gig turned into the second, and within a season and a half, Richard had become a full-fledged DJ himself. 

6 years later, Richard earned the position of Vice President of Michaels Entertainment. He still DJ’s just about every weekend while helping run this remarkably growing company during the week.
