The Most Amazing Weekend of My Life

I still can’t believe Magic-Con actually happened. It was the most amazing weekend of my life and one I will never forget.

Even though I was running around the whole time and hardly had a moment to say hello, I was able to meet some incredible people. A couple that stand out are Mahdi Gilbert and Steffan Banta. Between the two of them, I have never felt so inspired in my life. Mahdi, who has no hands, has looked past the impossible and mastered some of the most difficult sleights ever published. Steffan Banta continued to show me what Magic-Con promotes: passion for the art. The sparkle in his eyes and the hundred high-fives he must have given me throughout the conference was always a boost of energy and for that I thank him. At only 10 years old and already performing half my repertoire, I know we’ll be hearing more from this kid in the future.

I’d like to thank everyone for believing in Magic-Con. It really could not have happened without your support and we thank you for giving us a chance. We hope to see all of you who attended next year, as well as those who couldn’t, and we will do our very best to make it ever better.
