Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Lyja’s deep roots in the music scene since childhood sparked a lifelong love for producing events and collecting music. After years working behind the scenes, she found her way behind the decks – and the rest, naturally, was history. She's opened for talent like Purple Disco Machine, Chromeo, J.Phlip, SHADED, Psychemagik, and Mary Droppinz, performed at festivals including Northern Nights and Raindance, played at iconic nightlife staples A Club Called Rhonda and WERD, and on special occasion hosts her own events with her Create Magic brand.
