This magnetic ray of chaos, smiles and energy was an easy interview. Proud of both his history as a Marine and present as a DJ and Toys for Tots Coordinator, he brought an energy that was undeniable.

 Listen as this Chicagoland transplant talks about his unique upbringing with a two year high school sabbatical in Japan, using athleticism to shape his diligence and work ethic, surviving and thriving during bootcamp and beyond, the urge and disappointment of never  becoming a drill instructor, getting his MBA, opening a DJ business and mobile tailgating set up and becoming a famous icon at Illini games. On Thursday, December 11, Ceasar, along with the WCIA team, will be behind the WCIA building (509 S. Neil St.) accepting unwrapped kids' toys for the youth in our community. These youth may otherwise be overlooked this holiday season if it wasn't for the contributions from Toys for Tots. 

Emily Harrington, here! Mom, wife, retired communications liaison and host of the HyperLocal(s) Podcast. Each week I bring you a pod where townies and transplants share their tales of tears and triumphs, losses and wins. In an effort to provide a way for those that don’t want a public podcast, but still have a story to tell friends and family, I’ve created, In Retrospect: A HyperLocal(s) Project, a private podcast.
