Ripley:
Magic is fully customizable for each event and I work with my clients to create a customized experience to match any theme. I specialize in close-up/street magic and often perform with borrowed objects from my audience. I hand out many magical souvenirs so my audience can keep a memory of the magic. No hats, capes or wands, My magic is formal, tasteful, comedic and upscale for your event.
During stage and parlor shows, you can expect alot of mentalism & comedy magic with ropes , coins, cards and tons of audience participation. All material is family friendly and appropriate for all ages. I love to interact with my audiences and their engagement in the act is very important to me when performing.

VIP Service:
Treat your VIP clients to a personalized and custom show just for them. Formal and amazing to entertain your clients and let them know you appreciate them.
Corporate team building events:
Magic with your brand in mind and lots of magic along with a power message for your team. Magicians are very much salespeople who sell one of the most difficult products in the world...magic and illusion. The way this is accomplished is through hundreds of hours of practice to be able to sell the illusion succesfully. Imagine if people applied the same mindset to a company or business- imagine if the same dedication was applied to your business. Think abou what could be achieved.
Motivational Magic:
My "Magic of Motivation" presentation incorporates magic while delivering a powerful message about the power behind motiviation and achieving your goals.
