As a child it was music and magic, and now as an adult nothing has really changed. Only now its for real and I am much bigger. Growing up right outside of NYC afforded me the opportunity to see the modern greats like Copperfield, Doug Henning and Penn and Teller. My grandpa would take me to see these awesome magicians and after, would present me with a simple magic trick. I would study and practice with the tenacity of an obsessive compulsive. I knew I was hooked. Magic and Escape required not only my manual dexterity but challenged my mind as well. What a great way to pass the days, bound in rope to chair, vanishing the coin, reading my cats mind. I had passion for something. I felt whole.
Now as an adult, my passion has remained, but my needs have changed. I now get to share with others what I can do. I bring smiles and laughter, thrill and amazement to people on a daily basis. I am still hooked and I love it.
