Calgary, CaI'm a Canadian magician from Alberta (woot woot) and I've been obsessed with magic ever since the seventh grade.
How did you first get started in magic?
It started with me changing schools and needing friends, I desperately tried to find some way to impress people, in which I found magic. I first used it to impress people to get them to like me, but now I practice for my minds sake.
How often do you practice - how do you keep your skills (and mind) sharp?
I practice at least 3-4 hours a day, every day, every week. I need to in order to keep my mind and body in perfect harmony. To do so I practice simple, practical effects.
Which artists have inspired you the most in your work thus far?
Calen Morelli, Zach Mueller, Dan and Dave
What is your creative process - how do you come up with new effects and ideas?
There are processes that magicians say you can come up with something. Its either an artistic or a more scientific process. I prefer the more scientific process, of creating gimmicks, effects and anything like that.
