Hello! My name is Brandon Heim, and I've been performing all sorts of illusions and tricks for 10+ years. While I prefer walk-around and parlor style tricks, I do have a small arsenal of tricks for the stage.

It all started with a TED Talk. I was 14-years-old, and I happened to pear over my grandmother's shoulder as she was watching this video about "Brain Magic" on Facebook (you can watch it here!) I only saw the beginning where he does this impossible hand trick. I was not only completely fooled, but I absolutely needed to know how he did it.

I scoured the internet for hours, using all kinds of keywords trying to describe what I saw. Then, I came across a book that the trick was published in. Now, you might be thinking, because this is my first book on magic, it had to be a book that Chris Angel wrote. Or even better, a historic looking book that is actually a personal journal of tricks by Houdini!!!

Well... of all the books I could've stumbled across, it just had to be "Magic for Dummies"... Because of course it would.

I found a copy of it online (I'm sorry Comcast!) and so began my journey into prestidigitation.

Having been a sheltered, shy kid that grew up in front of a video game console and didn't really have a social life nor did anything extracurricular, it was odd that when I saw a poster for the middle school's talent show, I felt a desire to perform my newfound hobby. Nonetheless, I got my parent's approval, and geared up three tricks to perform -- including the hand trick.

I stepped outside my comfort zone and stepped into the middle of the gym. I perfectly performed the hand trick, a coin through sealed soda can trick, and an ashes through hand trick. And to my surprise, the whole school cheered and gave me a standing ovation.

That day would be the spark that ignited the flame to amazing opportunities I never would have had the blessing to be a part of. From winning high school/college talent shows, to working corporate events, to meeting incredible people (such as my wonderful wife).

Having performed tricks under the stage name "Magic MayHeim", I have now rebranded to something more on par to where I am at spiritually and convictionally:

Brandon Heim the Mystery Guy.

I am looking forward to working with you and amazing you at your next event. :)
