Our Team

  • Nathaniel Gardner Principal DJ

    Nathaniel has been entertaining since 2002 as both a DJ and an event MC. Originally from the Cleveland, Ohio area, Nathaniel's move to Utah required him to leave his old DJ business behind. It wouldn't be long before his passion for memorable parties would lead him to found Encore Entertainment in 2009. His professional approach to DJing along with his friendly demeanor have made him a favorite amongst our clients.

  • Caitie Wright Dance Instructor

    Caitie has been dancing since 2001 and comes to the rescue whenever one of Encore's clients needs help mastering dance moves, be they basic or more advanced. She majored in Dance at Utah Valley University and has performed on both UVU and BYU's ballroom dance teams. Caitie is able to teach just about any kind of dancing; the Waltz, the Cha Cha, Triple Step Swing, Samba, Foxtrot, Country and more.

  • Jeff Wright Dance Instructor

    Jeff started dancing in 2002 and has received high honors for his Ballroom performances in the past. He's a natural teacher who is both fun to learn from and great at controlling crowds of people at larger events.

  • Christian Arsenault Beatboxer/Entertainer

    Christian grew up in New York and began beatboxing in 2000 as a hobby but has since developed his unique abilities into professional skills. Some of his more recent venues have included the Sundance Film Festival and the Aladdin Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Able to sing and beatbox at the same time, Christian is the perfect addition to your event staff if you're looking to add some unique and upbeat entertainment to your party.

  • Greg Vandagriff Business Manager

    Greg is the cofounder and business manager for Encore Entertainment. While you may see him pitching in to help Nathaniel here and there, he doesn't typically interact with our clients directly. His primary job is maintaining the website and keeping Encore running smoothly from behind the scenes.
