I love music, sports, food, and my hometown of Lafayette, LA! I’ve been a Club DJ for 6 years. You may have even caught one of my DJ sets if you frequent Jefferson Street. You can also find me writing about the Saints, local happenings, and everything in between. Find out what else I’m up to by following me @SCARENCRO on Twitter or Instagram. Peace!
