Juggler
With over 20 years of experience performing and over 40 years experience juggling, I bring a dynamic mix of precision, danger, and humor to every performance. I confidently juggle five balls with smooth, effortless control, showcasing strong technical skill and consistency. Pushing beyond the ordinary, I also perform with high-risk props including chainsaws, fire, and machetes, delivering an edge of your seat experience that captivates audiences.
What truly sets me apart is my fun loving personality. I blend skill with comedy, engaging crowds with timing, charm, and a playful sense of humor that keeps people laughing while holding their breath. Whether it's a high energy stage show or an intimate performance, I perform a memorable juggling act that is equal parts thrilling and entertaining.
Beyond the stage, I specialize in interactive and mobile performances in juggling. I seamlessly juggle while moving through crowds at upscale galas, creating spontaneous moments of delight. I also lead roaming "how to juggle" mini-workshops, inviting people of all ages to join in, learn tricks, and become part of the act. In parades, I bring energy and spectacle on the move, combining skillful juggling with engaging presence to connect with audiences along the route.
I also offer hands-on juggling workshops for daycares , schools, and large groups. Drawing on over 20 years experience developing children's programming for museums and science clubs, I create sessions that are fun, educational, and accessible to all skill levels.
Magician
My magical style blends clever moves and distraction with sharp comedic timing, creating moments that catch audiences off guard and leave them laughing just as much as they are amazed. I specialize in subtle , deceptive magic that happens right under your nose, then somehow still surprises you.
I am a juggler that performs magic. The fusion of magic and juggling makes my magic act unique. Some of my magic routines incorporate juggling elements, adding movement, rhythm, and an extra layer of skill to the performance. The result is a fast paced, dynamic magic act that is funny, surprising, and always memorable.
I also specialize in roaming magic for corporate events and galas. My sneaky style and quick-wit is perfect for these settings.
