DJ Lil Jaz joined the faculty of The Royal Conservatory of Music in 2003, founding DJ Fundamentals: Scratch from Scratch - the first DJ class of its kind in Canada.

Currently, Jaz is touring with K OS and his band, following work on K OS's album Atlantis. Jaz first collaborated with K OS on the Joyful Rebellion release, providing scratches on the songs "Papercuts" and "Love Song". Jaz continued this relationship by joining K OS' live band as his DJ and keyboard player. The band saw much success in 2005 as they helped push the album to a near double platinum milestone in Canada.

From 2001 - 2005, Jaz collaborated with Nelly Furtado on stage and in the studio. Whether it was touring worldwide, providing scratches for songs, or producing music, he was an integral part of Nelly's first two multi platinum releases, Whoa! Nelly and Folklore.

Jaz has been a serious presence in Canada's DJ scene for over 12 years, helping cultivate the near non-existent turntablist scene in Canada over a 6 year competition career and alongside his crew members DJ Grouch and DJ Scratch. Together they were known as Turnstylez. Revered by DJs across the country, Jaz continues to open new doors in the scene as a teacher in the Urban Music & Technology department at The Royal Conservatory of Music Community School.
