Kent’s magic career began at the tender age of six. By the age of 10 he was performing professionally, amazing audiences at birthday parties, corporate functions and telethons. With each passing year, his skills continued to develop and he hasn’t looked back since.

In 2005, Kent was privileged to become the only magician hired by the Province of Alberta to help celebrate the Province’s centennial birthday. When asked about it, Kent simply acknowledged that, “It was an honor to be able to play a part in such an historical occasion. It’s an event that I take pride in and will remember for the rest of my life.”

From there, Kent established the Edmonton Magic Club (the “EMC”), an organization dedicated to inspiring magicians and raising the bar for magic as a true performance art. The EMC is now one of the largest magic fraternities in western Canada and has gained recognition from magicians around the world.

In 2007, Kent successfully completed the Master’s Class of Magic, hosted by Jeff McBride and Eugene Burger, two of the worlds undisputed leaders in the conjuring arts. During one segment of that class, Kent performed his version of the Cups and Balls. By the end of the routine, Jeff McBride opened his comments by saying, “That was one of the most original routines I have ever seen.”

Several months later, Kent entered the routine at the convention of the Pacific Coast Association of Magicians. This is an international convention where magicians from around the world gather to improve the art of magic through lectures, seminars and friendly competitions. By the end of the convention, Kent became the proud recipient of two International Gold Medals.

Most recently, Kent was profiled on national television for his ongoing contributions to the art of magic, and he was also delighted to perform for two of Canada’s Olympic Gold Medal Champions. When Kent was asked what he enjoys most about magic, he simply grinned and said, “I just love making people smile.”
