About Me

I live in New York City. I grew up in south west Florida. I am an entertainer. My show is a combination of memory, thought reading, psychological trickery, prestidigitation, and suggestion, focused on general Mystery. I could say that I am a worker of miracles, but that would take allot of explaining. I work many different venues, from trade shows and private parties to stage productions. I love mystery, deception, searching for truth, perception, art, and creativity.To learn more about me go to:
