DJ Inga Ambrosia

I'm a 32 year old that looks like a 22 year old.  I owe my youthful appearance to my vegan diet and my mellow attitude.

My world is surrounded by music and art, which I cannot live without.

My upbringing began in 1975, in Miami, Florida.  My mother and father raised me to always believe that I could do ANYTHING.  Not just anything ... everything.  Not because I was a superhero, but just because they understood/understand the power of thought.  I have some powerful thoughts.

When I was young, all I wanted to do was read and draw.  My father wouldn't let me go to an arts school, so I rebelled by doing the least in high school.  I wasn't a very good student, but I did manage to graduate with Honors at the age of 16 from Miami Central High School.  

While in school, I discovered my love of writing poetry.  When I was younger, I'd follow my sister, eight year my senior to the library, and read old plays and love poems.  Not until I reached 9th grade, and was forced to write a poem, did I realize how lovely putting my thoughts into a rhyme could be.

 From there, I wrote Erotica for my friends, greeting cards for my family and made up cartoons in my notebook.  This led me to a love of comic books and graphic novels.  Real life was just so boring to me.  Classic movies were how I escaped, the older the better.  My favorite movie is, "This Property is Condemned." that stars Robert Redford and Natalie Wood.  She reminded me of me, in the way she fantasized and daydreamed all day long.

When I got to college, I plotted along.  The only classes I found interesting were Women's Studies, Psychology, Anthropology and Film.  Introduction to Psychology/Philosophy lead me down a beautiful path of enlightenment, and I graduated from Florida International with a B.A. in Psychology.  While I was there, I took art classes and developed my skills.  Since then, I've shown my photography and videos in art galleries and clubs in Miami.

Children gravitate towards me because I have a young spirit, and I see them as little adults.  My love of art is taught to young kids of all ages in schools and private homes. It makes me so happy when I can show a child that says they can't draw, how to make a masterpiece.  From then on, they feel they can do anything.  I also teach kids how to meditate and how to appreciate all forms of plant and wild life.  My love of children, animals and nature has kept me on the right path.

It wasn't until 2003 when I discovered I needed to be a vegan.  I'd always felt that eating animals wasn't the right thing to do, but I didn't have the additional information needed to make a permanent change.  That decision was made for me due to an incident with a chicken caesar salad.  The visions and pictures that flashed through my mind, ensured that I would never touch a piece of chicken again.  And I didn't.  From there it took about a year for me to rid my diet of all animals products.  I became a full vegan on January 1, 2004.  

 Because of my veganism, my level of spirituality has deepened.  I began to love animals, nature, flowers and all things from the Earth.  My musical tastes have always been on the eclectic side, but aggressive music started to disrupt my equilibrium.  I decided to become a DJ in 2004, so I could bring my new love of this ambient, melodic music to the masses.  In my bedroom, I taught myself how to DJ and later went to school to learn music composition and mixing.

 Since then, I've been reguarly playing in Dade and Broward Counties and it's been a fun ride.  The best is yet to come ... xoxo
