Interests

I really enjoy my job. I am a professional Magician. Some of my best gigs have been strolling magic for clubs, wineries, private parties etc. I've been performing magic for the past 15 or so years. I have had the honor to have some world renouned known magicians take me under their wing and teach me the trade. Now, I have had the privledge to pass this knowledge on to my apprentice. He's 14 and I have been teaching the the art for the past two years.

I really enjoy longboarding, bombing the mountains here in Santa Barbara. I find it as an escape when I don't feel like heading to the beach.

I love learning, just finished up at Santa Barbara City College. I use to rollerblade to school, about 3 miles, in the morning or i'd ride my man-trike. Thats right, a man-trike. Last summer I spent it in Santa Barbara riding around and performing for all on State Street and on the boardwalk. You know, its a great feeling when your able to walk through town and people know you as "THE MAGICIAN"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At the age of 19 I was accepted to the World Famous Magic Castle. Its a private and prestigious club for magicians located in Hollywood, CA. That summer I got ahold of the United States Coast Guard in Grand Haven, Michigan. They flew me out to their annual Coast Guard Festival where I was booked for a week and performed. It was pretty amazing an kinda a big deal for me.

I jumped out of a plane with a few of my buddies for one of their 21st birthday. I'm kinda extreme. I had to psych myself up by convincing myself that if I hit the ground without my shoot opening, I'd walk away. I feel that the scary part of the adventure was sitting at the front door, and going up in the air while it was open. The jump was pretty chill
