DJ: Paulino Mercenari
Paulino is the host of “Two-Step” and a 305 Rat who loves all things South Florida, whether urban exploring some old landmark or spending his free time kayaking through mangroves. Paulino listens to all genres, but especially loves music hailing from Mexico. Beyond the booth, he’s Promotions Director at WVUM 90.5, where he curates events and builds local partnerships.
DJ: Gabriel Izaguirre
Gabriel is a dade-made Miami local, doing anything for the plot. In addition to being EKL’s newest host, he serves as WVUM’s Training Director. While it might come as a surprise, he’s also a double business major, aiming for a future in the corporate world. For now, you can catch him at the station practicing on the CDJs or out and about soaking up live music. Gabriel believes the key to a happy life is being cringe, staying weird, and keeping it real!
