How did you get started in Cardistry?
I bought "Mark Wilson's Complete Course in Magic" and one of the sections included the waterfall flourish. Shortly after, I discovered Decknique, Dan and Dave Buck, and De'vo.
Who are some of your inspirations?
Andrei Jikh, De'vo, Jonas, Dimitri, Luka, Aviv, Cardini, Lance Burton, Fred Kaps and several others.
Do you have a favorite flourish?
Viereck
Who is your favorite cardist to watch?
Jonas Haglund
Do you perform magic?
I started out in magic but I don't perform it anymore.
What is your creative process when it comes to formulating a new flourish?
I mostly just experiment and think about different ideas until I find something that I've never seen before. I work from there to create an aesthetically appealing flourish.
What advice would you give to someone starting out in cardistry?
Explore your options and never limit yourself to any one concept in cards.
How do you feel about the internet and cardistry?
The internet has been essential in helping cardists to connect and share ideas. Cardistry most likely wouldn't have progressed as far as it has without the internet.
