My Magic Journey

My magic developed over the years per-forming at parties, care homes, restaurants and clubs. During my University years I entertained in the bars and restaurants of Manchester and London hotels. I even entertained Team GB following the Commonwealth Games in Manchester. 

 

In 2005 joined the Order of the Maji and International brotherhood of Magicians. I continued per-formed close up magic for many events, weddings and functions. 

 

I met my future wife Sonia in 2007 and in 2008 we both decided to move to Exeter. We love Devon and the Southwest and have never looked back. We got married in 2011 and now have 2 young boys keeping us busy. They both love to watch my magic! 

In Exeter, I focused on becoming a children’s entertainer. My first nerve racking children’s show was for the children of the local Marines at the army barracks in Lympstone. 

 

Later, I started to learn the art of balloon modelling. My enthusiasm for balloons was catapulted by a workshop in Topsham with balloon legend Graham Lee and I have been good friends with him ever since. 

 

My balloon modelling skills are mainly self-taught but regular attendance of clubs, conventions and the Southwest Ballooniversity have developed his skills into one of the South West’s leading bal-loon modellers. 

 

In 2012 I won the coveted Exonian Magic Society’s Close up competition, 2015 saw me take home the Riviera Comedy magician award and 2021 I won the Exonian people’s choice award. 

 

Since 2016, I have been a full-time professional magician performing at countless parties, festivals, weddings and corporate functions. At home I juggle my time between my 2 young boys, 2 dogs and magic. 

 

In 2020 I completed a course in Stand-Up Comedy and this year I recently completed the next level Stand up and comedy writing course as well as a level 2 certificate in Understanding children with Autism 

 

In the remaining time, I enjoy aircraft photography, visiting air shows and airports around the world.
