Los Angeles
Using his life story as the backdrop, Brad presents strange phenomena (mind-reading, precognition, clairvoyance, telekinesis, and hypnotism) showing the power our mind holds and its ability to either help or hinder our lives. Not only does he entertain with mental mysteries but he also shows others how to tap into their intuition and subconscious, either giving people permanent mental tools or at least something to think about long after the show.

How long have you been interested in magic?
I've been interested in magic since I was 9 years old. I started learning magic when I was in High School and have been practicing and performing ever since.
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
Both personal and humorous, the show is filled with anecdotes about my family and life. The first half of the act is dedicated to mind reading and nonverbal communication, the last half to hypnosis and trance. This show is entirely participant driven and extremely interactive.
I don't force anyone to do anything they don't want to with the hypnosis and the mind reading is kept towards the light hearted (first kiss, most embarrassing moment, etc).
What do you love most about your job?
There's nothing more rewarding than interacting with people and getting other people to interact with each other in a fun way. Getting them to open up. I gravitate towards mentalism because it's completely based on what other people are thinking and their personalities.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've been self-employed for almost ten years. I wanted to be in charge of my clients and my time and having my own business made sense.
Why should our clients choose you?
I try to amuse people and create wonder but also engage them on an intellectual level, making them think about how they could improve themselves and their lives.
I have a huge range of phenomena that I present from metal bending to hypnosis and suggestion. There's something to appeal to everyone.
