For decades, I focused on growing my career as a writer (my very first stint was writing comedy for a college radio show with my friend Tim Allen). After graduation, I bounced around at different jobs across the country - Michigan, Texas, Boston - having a good run writing for high-tech companies.

But on my 50th birthday, I marched into my boss's office at Microsoft and told him "I'm quitting to become a magician."

Even though my job as game writer for Flight Simulator, Age of Empires, and multiple XBox titles had been a blast, I still wanted to go for my dream of making a living as a professional magician and entrepreneur.

It was quite the ride - with plenty of ups and downs along the way. I'm an excellent kidshow performer, but the magic of a successful business only became real after I discovered the power of direct response copywriting in the mold of Dan Kennedy, John Caples, and other copy greats. I extended my business to help other magicians successfully sell their services... through webinars, live events, and products.

Eventually, my success as a marketer and copywriter led me to join Dan Kennedy's company - GKIC - where for over three years I led the copy team as Head Copywriter. Now I provide AI / marketing / writing services and counsel to a variety of clients in many different industries.
