Still reading? No worries.
Two things worth knowing about me: First, I don’t advertise. All my bookings come from reviews, referrals, and repeat clients.
Second: There are very few videos of me. This is deliberate – what I do should be experienced, not watched.
(If you insist: Here’s an unusual thing I created for Prudential, a few years ago.)
So: No advertising and (almost) no videos. What DO I do?
Well, put simply, people hire me to make their events better.
Often, that means close-up magic and ‘mentalism’ at a cocktail party. Other times, it’s mindreading for hundreds of guests at a corporate gala or a benefit.
I want you at all of our games!

Hullo.
Your best bet would be to stop reading this, and contact me directly to check my availability for your event.
(I’ll get back to you within 24 hours, even if I’m in-between airports.)
To say that people were blown away would not be an exaggeration. We can’t thank you enough!

Along the way I’ve also engineered secret pop-up shows for Social Media Week; created immersive magical experiences for a craft brewery and designed magic-and-cocktail-pairings for a speakeasy; customized content for multiple product launches; taught 3-Card Monte for a Pulitzer Prize-winning play; performed at The Super Bowl; and been the mystery-guest at thousands of private events across six continents. (Antarctica’s hard to get to.)
The world is more interesting with you in it.

So: What will I do at YOUR event?
Well, that depends on you – your event, your needs. So contact me, and we’ll talk.
Ta,

P.S. I have a weekly show in New York City,
at The McKittrick Hotel. It’s a helluva night out.
