When the party's 100% glam, and the magic's 100% real. Honored to perform for the fabulous Scheana Shay on her big 4-0!

If May had a theme, it’d be:"I can’t believe this is my life."

This month was a whirlwind of sparkle, surprises, and sleight of hand. Here's a recap of the magical madness:

✨ Hollywood Glamour & Bravo Vibes

I had the honor of performing at Scheana Shay’s 40th birthday party—yes, that Scheana from Vanderpump Rules! The event was pure Hollywood: lights, cameras, cocktails, and me… pulling miracles out of thin air in my signature purple suit. (No word yet on my own Bravo spin-off, but I’m ready.)

🎓 School Shows & Sponge Ball Thunder

From glitz to giggles—next up, I shared my magic with elementary school students in Fontana and Riverside. These kids reminded me that the best reactions come from the youngest hearts. If you’ve never seen 100 third-graders collectively lose their minds… you're missing out.

💣 Bomb Squad & Wellness Wonders

Yes, I performed magic for the LAPD Bomb Squad at their Wellness Day! Because what better way to relax than with card tricks and comedy? Huge thanks to the officers who keep our communities safe—and still made time to enjoy a little sleight of hand.

🧡 Celebrating Volunteers at the Braille Institute

One of the most meaningful moments this month was performing at the Braille Institute in Santa Barbara to celebrate the incredible work of their volunteers. It was an afternoon full of heart, humor, and some unforgettable connections.

🧠 Magically Mental Returns

May wrapped up with a bang as I returned to the Magic Castle stage with one of my favorite people on Earth: Mentalist James Knight. Together, we performed as Magically Mental, blending mind-reading, magic, and laughter into a truly unforgettable show.

🌴 What’s Coming Up in June

Here’s where you can catch me next:

June 3: Magic Castle – Dante Member Appreciation Party

June 10–21: Waikiki Magical Parlour at the International Market in Waikiki

📣 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!

I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be making my Parlour of Prestidigitation debut for Family Brunch at the Magic Castle on August 2–3!This is a huge milestone for me, and I can’t wait to bring the wonder to a room full of wide-eyed kiddos (and maybe a few skeptical adults too).
