Jacob has been doing magic since the age of six, and has always loved to practice and perform magic. Jacob started out performing for children’s birthday parties when he was 14. During the winter of his 16th birthday Jacob met his first street performer in San Francisco while on a trip with his dance ensemble, and the following summer he realised his true passion for street performing. Over the past four years he has been working on, and performing his street show. To date Jacob has travelled across Canada, and two one festival in the United States, and has performed his show over 300 times. Jacob will still perform at children’s birthday parties, and corporate events, in winter when he is called, but for him, nothing compares to working at outdoor festivals.
Working with other performers, and being easy to get along with both come naturally to Jacob. He has no problem dealing with unexpected circumstances or last minute changes to schedules. At previously attended festivals, Jacob has been well loved by audiences, other performers, and organisers alike.
In addition to performing, Jacob also loves fishing and camping, making animation, and going to parties. He also frequently wonders why biography’s are always written in the third person.
