I started my career at about 10 yrs old. I saw a magician at a local fair and that was the moment I said, "That's it!" Since that moment, I have made magic my life. Every day, that's what's on my mind. I try to always evolve and make my show better than before. By adding new tricks, new illusions, and more up to date style, I must move forward...
My magic has taken me all over the west coast, from Arizona to Canada with many places in between. Whenever I perform, I love to think about the fact that I'm not just doing a magic show like so many magicians out there, no. I see this as an opportunity to change someone's day, make someone smile, or create a special memory that will last.
In summer of 2009, I was performing in Tacoma. After I finished, a gentleman watching came to me and said:
"just so you know, this week has been the worst week of my life. I have never had so many things go wrong, and I can't fix them. I was watching you perform and I must say your pretty darn good at what you do. Even though I'm still going through hell, you got me to smile for a couple minutes. thank you."
Hearing that, made my day. And that, is what I think magic is all about.
My plans for the future are big, but big things take time. Eventually I would either like to tour the country, or perform steady in one location (Vegas perhaps?) I don't know where the road leads, but hey, I'm ready to walk it.
