In 2006, DJ Crooked was contracted by The Light Group and moved to Las Vegas, NV where he held a DJ residency at LIGHT in the Bellagio Hotel & JET in the Mirage Hotel. In less than one year, Crooked had become one of the most premiere DJ's in Vegas and established one of the best club nights in the city, Mondays at JET. Currently, DJ Crooked still resides in Las Vegas and now holds DJ residencies @ TAO in the Venetian Hotel, LAVO in the Palazzo Hotel, WET REPUBLIC in the MGM Grand Hotel and CHERRY in the Redrock Hotel.
