1.) when and how did you get into magic
I got into magic around nine years ago, which would have made me about 13 years old. I saw a David Blaine special as well as a big huge chart rundown of the greatest magic tricks ever, where I got to watch Guy Hollingworth, Lance Burton, Juan Tamariz, Max Maven, David Berglas, Meir Yedid... loads. I was immediately inspired by these guys and the next day I begun thoroughly studying magic. That hobby led into a full time pursuit!
2.)who were your biggest influences on magic
When I started, it was Blaine, Derren Brown, just TV magicians, really.
As my studies grew and my knowledge expanded, my influences have became very extensive for varying different reasons.
3.)where do you get your inspirations from
I can get my inspiration from the silliest things. I have an effect with an apple... I was inspired... by an apple. Sounds odd, and it is really, but I suppose it's all about the creative process of the individual.
4.)and what sacrifices did you make to be where you are now?
I have sacrificed a hell of a lot. I've lost a lot and gained some attributes I wish I hadn't. But I'm sure it'll end up being worthwhile.
