How long have you been interested in magic?
Unlike many magicians, I didn't become interested in magic until my late 20's.
Take us through your show – what can we expect?
Stage show
I offer a stand-up show that is great for large audiences. It features clean comedy and amazing magic that is sure to entertain and amaze any audience.
Close up show
I have a close up magic show that is perfect for more intimate settings. The show features a good variety of tricks and is centralized around card magic. The show is fun and interactive, leaving no one out.
Strolling magic
Strolling magic is perfect for events where a show would not be practical.
What do you love most about your job?
I love connecting with people. It's great watching them laughing and having a good time, but nothing beats the look on someone's face when they see something truly impossible.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was unhappy with my normal 9-5 job and wanted something different. I developed a passion for magic and decided to pursue it as a career. Entertainment is not an easy industry to work in, but I believe it's worth pursuing your dreams and I'm giving it all I have.
