North Shore Teen Starts Own DJ Business: Glencoe Star Student Shoutout

GLENCOE, IL — Star Students are found in classrooms, on concert and theater stages and at debate lecterns, and out in the community doing good things to make life better for all of us.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize Star Students, and we’re working to tell the stories of these outstanding kids to their neighbors.

This submission comes from Wendy Berg who nominated her son, Noah, a 9th grader who runs his own entertainment company.

Why do you believe the star local student should be recognized?
Noah, also known has DJ Gator, has built his own business from the age of 10 years old. He started DJing and Emceeing before when we lived in the City pre-covid at neighborhood parties and then post covid his business exploded with multiple DJ shows every weekend on the North Shore where we now live. He is currently going through the process of merging with another local teen DJ Company and they will be premiering the new company this April so they can grow larger together as team and do larger events that are in demand.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the star local student?
He loves to entertain, get people dancing and having a good time and that is why he started his DJ Gator business. www.djgator.net
