Hard of hearing since birth, D.J. Demers has never let his disability get in the way of his dreams. His clever, witty style of comedy will surprise you with lots of twists and turns. His stand-up profiles his perspective of what it's like to be hard of hearing, and the fact that he doesn’t see things any differently than most of us—while keeping it refreshing and inspiring no matter what. Five years ago, he moved to Los Angeles from Toronto, Canada; since then he’s appeared on season 11 of America's Got Talent and performed on Conan three times. He was the winner of the 2014 Homegrown Comics Competition at the prestigious Just For Laughs festival in Montreal, was the winner of the 2013 Toronto Comedy Brawl, was a finalist for NBC's Stand-Up for Diversity, and won “Best Breakout Artist” at the 2015 Canadian Comedy Awards.

We are thrilled to share that last week's event exceeded our expectations. DJ was an absolute pleasure to work with. The attendees, including our guests, staff, and families, thoroughly enjoyed his entire presentation. In fact, we have already received multiple inquiries about when we will be bringing him back. This positive feedback is inspiring and reinforces our commitment to providing enriching experiences for all involved.
We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to you both for your assistance in securing DJ for our event. His presence truly exemplified our mission, and we hope to maintain a lasting connection with him. Additionally, I have attached a video that the children made for DJ, showcasing their creativity and highlighting the endless possibilities that lie ahead for them. This lighthearted video not only brought joy to the audience and to DJ, but also served as a reminder to DJ of the power he holds to represent our Deaf Community in such a positive way. He truly rocked it! https://youtu.be/NB7G_5ckTkE?si=dir7NqZCdJAPrJYY Thank you once again for your valuable support! I look forward to working with you in the future.
