DJ, Producer, Promoter, Podcaster and Public Speaker
Hi, my name is Darren Fischer (aka DJ D$ell). I was born with a disability and my dream was to become a DJ. Originally, I thought that I wasn’t gonna be able to be a DJ but worked hard and I taught myself the skills required to just that!
I am also an advocate for disability rights and self-advocacy. Initially I began to learn about my own rights both as an American and as an individual with disabilities… however that grew into and eventual large-scale involvements with various local non-profit organizations and advocacy efforts – so now I work to speak on disability rights and advocate for them.
No matter if your wanting to become a DJ or are simply wanting to learn about how to better advocate for yourself – regardless of a disability – through hard work it can be achieved! Everybody should be able to change their own individual perspectives and be empowered to run for their dreams.
When I decided to start this company it was with the initial thought of running for my own dreams. I was able to realize my dreams of becoming a professional DJ through these efforts. After achieving one goal, I asked myself, “now that I’ve achieved my own personal goals, how can I expand on that whilst helping others?” – which has led towards the expansion of Run Four Your Dreams, allowing us to provide an additional umbrella over both a professional photographer service and a racing team.
Although I’ve been able to embrace and expand my efforts, I’m still available for hire. I’m available to help produce events, as a sound engineer, as a DJ, or can publicly speak at any of your future events. Through this website I hope you take a moment to connect with me and my content – and I hope the many resources I list can be helpful to you. Also feel free to have fun with my quirky videos or take a moment to learn about disabilities through the Disability Equality Podcast, a project that I helped worked to build and host with Advocating Change Together (ACT).
Feel free to have fun at any of my events that are open to the public but most of all, remember, I ran for my dreams so that I can help you run for yours!
