Bio

I am an entertainer specializing in close-up magic for adults. With an educational background in chemistry, most of the themes for my presentations center around almost plausible scientific inventions or principles (plausible at least in a theatrical sense!). My goal as a performer is to "nudge" my audiences into remembering that there is still wonder in the world. I consider the role of a magician to be very vital for modern society. In the hustle and bustle of today's modern world, with its constant barrage of soundbites and talking points, people need to be reminded of the mysterious in order to point them towards the deeper truths of human existence.
