\"DJ<\/a>24-year-old Dj Sharly (Sharlyne Andis Agini) is slowly but surely becoming a force to reckon with in the entertainment scene dominated by male DJs. The upcoming DJ, who happens to be an engineering student at the University of Nairobi, is carving a niche by introducing her fans to a fusion of African and Western beats that has an appeal across different ages.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to be the reason why both grownups and kids have a better day because of good music. I have a passion for good music and I like the night life so it was something I was bound to do, even if it\u2019s just as a hobby. I love to share my ideas of good music with other people and thanks to God people resonate with my taste in music,\u201d says DJ Sharly.<\/p>\n

Sharly has become a regular DJ in some of the clubs in Nairobi and events beyond the city, but pursuing a demanding course has made her plan her time carefully and work harder than most of her peers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have to create time to study. There is no option when it comes to that. That means a lot of planning and time management on my part. There is also a lot of sacrifice\u00a0(to be made). I cannot afford the luxury of sleeping a lot or constantly partying,\u201d says the DJ by night and student by day lady with an infectious smile.<\/p>\n

The fact that she is in an industry dominated by men only gives her motivation to prove herself and change the perception that this is a male-only industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe truth is\u00a0anyone who says that I\u2019ve got it easy would be lying. You have to work hard for what you want in life and I respect my interests too much to let anyone give it to me on a silver platter. I have got all my contracts because the clients love what I do and I can confidently go head to head with any Dj, male or female, and as it is I headline a lot of shows with the lineup made up of guys,\u201d says Sharly.<\/p>\n

The budding DJ has saved and managed to buy her own set of equipment from the events she has deejayed at and has plans of buying a DJ van to make her movement easier.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe that life is about going for what you want regardless of any cards you have been dealt with,\u201d sums up DJ Sharly.<\/p>\n
