Magical Memories are Attainment is a nationwide entertainment experience company, so we do a variety of entertainment services ranging from the game shows to circus performers to balloon twisters, caricaturist, airbrush artists, a little bit of everything. Our biggest thing is really connecting our clients with people that. Any cool experiences? So I've been doing this. This is basically the thing I've ever done in my entire life. I have, I started doing, I'm a magician by trade. So I when I was 8 years old, 7-8 years old, I started doing magic as like a hobby and I like to do it. And I was actually going back in for that, how I got into magic. I wanted to be a part of the talent show when I was in elementary school and I couldn't sing, I couldn't dance. I don't think I was that funny at the time. And I the only thing I had was a little magic kit. So I decided to do magic and I got up and I performed these little plastic tricks, but that was what sparked my interest in entertainment. So from that I ended up performing magic all throughout my high school career. And then once I graduated, well, even in high school, I started to perform it professionally. And then once I graduate high school, I went to college and when I was in college, I developed the company. Anytime somebody asked me, hey, do you know, can you do pulling, twisting, can you do juggling? Can you do D Jing, whatever. I wouldn't necessarily have the skills, but I would always turn around and try to. Find friends or make friends that were able to do those things and never said no. So I was blessed as I, I, I kept my eyes open. I always, anytime I did an event, I tried to meet people and I always connected with people because it's important from, for me at least to have that personal connection with people. I want to make sure if I'm sending somebody to an event, they're going to deliver to the level that I, that I wouldn't, if I expect. So I always try to make friends with people and then ensure that they do a really good job. And then, and that's how that kind of transitioned as I grew my roster. Stuff as a group, my friend, my egg by Fred base there's really shouldn't embarrass you, but a friend base it made it just that much easier. So anytime somebody said, Hey, I need somebody, you know, to do whatever I can like, Oh, actually, I know a guy who can juggle a fire truck and I don't know, you know, it's like all that fun stuff and I just love making people smile and adding that extra little bit and that little that little extra happiness and those little moments. That's why I do it. That's that's what I mean. I I tell everybody I'm way overqualified for the job. Do I have two degrees? I've three marketing psychology and a minor in communications. And now I'm at a point where I'm like delivering these amazing experiences for people. And that's really why I do what I do.
