I am a 24-year Navy veteran and a cancer survivor who happens to be a fun-loving husband, father, and children’s magical entertainer. Two months after I retired from the U.S. Navy, I was diagnosed with cancer. Not sure if I was going to live or die, I leaned on my FAITH in GOD knowing that He is in control of my ultimate destiny, I leaned on my FAMILY for their LOVE and SUPPORT so I didn’t have to face that challenge alone, and I leaned on MAGIC.
MAGIC allowed me to remain positive when it seemed like my world was falling apart and it gave me the will to perform, because, when I did, seeing the smiles on children’s faces and hearing their laughter, gave me the drive and passion to keep performing.
I have been performing children/family magic shows for the last 27 years, with the last 2 years being a full-time performer. I am often asked, out of all the different types of magic shows you could perform, why do you choose to perform magic for children and families?
Well, it’s because I love kids and always have loved kids, I have three of my own; and to me, there is no better joy that I can think of than going to an event, performing my magic, and seeing the look of excitement, wonder, and shock & awe on all the children’s faces.
