How long have you been interested in magic?
I've been interested in magic for about 20 years. I am a member of the IBM (International Brotherhood of Magicians) and the SAM (Society of American Magicians) and have served as secretary for both groups at the local level.
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
My show consists of productions, vanishes, things changing places, things that appear broken then suddenly are fixed...magic stuff. I use many of the children as helpers so *they* do the magic. What people generally don't expect is the way I can hold the children's attention for so long. The best part of my show is the interaction with the children and hearing them laugh with delight or oooh with wonder.
What do you love most about your job?
The kids. The laughter, the wow's...the look on their faces.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Honestly, I was tired of 9-5. I sewed as a hobby when my children were younger (I have 3 boys) and took that love of sewing into my first endeavor into the magic world by starting Seams Like Magic making costuming and props for magicians and variety entertainers. A few years later, I started performing myself.
Why should our clients choose you?
I honestly love what I do and it shows. I wouldn't trade it for any other career.
