In 2019 I received a call to say that I had been nominated into the Lux Life Magazine Hospitality Awards by one of my clients. This went into a short listing process and only 2 months after the initial nomination I actually won the category - Wedding Entertainer of the Year - Shropshire.

In September 2017 I competed against other magicians in my first professional stage competition. This was with The International Brotherhood of Magicians (IBM). This was called - The British Ring Shield Competition, otherwise known as "IBM Stage Magician of the Year." 

I am very proud to tell you that I won and gained the title of IBM Stage Magician of the Year for 2017-18.

This second examination consisted of a 10 minute stage performance at The Magic Circle HQ with my own routine, however on this occasion there was over 100 magicians present to watch the show and 4 hidden magician members were judging me throughout. The silver star indicates that I am a performer.

In December 2016 I was recognised for my work and selected with only 99 other businesses to represent the SmallBiz100. I was fortunate enough to perform my magic for the Minister for Small Business - MP Margot James inside Number 10 Downing Street.

I became a full member of the Magic Circle in 2016 after completing my examination in front of an audience of magicians at the magic circle headquarters in London.

From October 2012 to May 2013 I was accepted to work as an Entertainments Host for Thomson Cruises onboard the Thomson Majesty Cruise Liner. This included hosting daytime quizzes, up to a full evening cabaret/gameshow. I was given excellent feedback from passengers and crew and was told by the Cruise Director, Mr Paul Evans, that I was "one of the most talented 19 year olds..." he'd ever worked with.

At the age of 15, I set up the business JD Magic. This was a natural progression after performing for just family and friends since the age of 5!
