He definitely does not look like your typical magician. Don't let his punk rock hair and blue jeans fool you. Wade is one of the most sought after mystifiers in the country today. At only 23 years of age, Wade has toured across the world performing his unique blend of magic and illusion!

It all began when Wade was 12 years old when his grandfather took him to see a magic show in his home town of Syracuse NY. Since that night, magic has taken over his life.

In May of 2003, Wade traveled cross country to Los Angeles, California to study with one of the top bird manipulators and cruise ship entertainers in the world. Dan Birch from Van Nuys CA took Wade on a one on one intensive instruction course on the art of bird manipulation. Wade has studied from the prestigious Chavez College of Manual Dexterity and Prestidigitation in La Verne, CA under the instruction of Dale Salwak.

Wade has traveled and performed magic extensively throughout the U.S. Based in central New York, Wade began performing professionally (part-time) for local events at the age of 16, and by 19 was a full time seasoned pro. Wade's talent and persistence helped land him a coveted apprenticeship with the top insiders of this secret society. Learning the well kept secrets of Houdini, Blackstone as well as the current magical inventors of our time.

In 2006, Wade received a phone call that every magician dreams of getting. He was hand-picked to be an understudy to star in one of the largest illusion shows in the world today. Wade was stunned with this offer and said YES! He packed his bags and took off to Asia in Jan of 2007 for theatrical training. Many of the performers who have performed at Sandcastle, (known throughout the world for its productions of cutting-edge, lavish magic and illusion shows) wind up headlining on the Las Vegas Strip! The show, "Magical Flight" featured 150 parakeets, 20 doves, 3 macaws, 2 toucans, 1 cockatoo, 2 tigers, and the most dangerous of all...5 dancers. The Sandcastle Dinner Theater is located in Saipan, a U.S. Commonwealth not far from Guam. Saipan is a major tourist draw for Japan, Korea, and China; and is more commonly referred to as the "Las Vegas of Asia."
