Known for his unique blend of bubbles, magic, dance, and his love for people. River’s exceptional ability to connect with people has led to the creation of an unforgettable magic act—one of its kind in the world.

His journey into magic began at a young age. With a child’s imagination, he believed that every water feature was a wishing fountain. He would often ask his mother for a penny with a year on it, convinced it could grant a special wish. Through these magical wishes, fate guided him toward a magical discovery.

After moving from Ashtabula, Ohio, to Lemoyne, Pennsylvania.  There he stumbled upon a local magic shop, which became his gateway to the world of illusion. Mesmerized by the magical artifacts in the shop, the owner asked River if he wanted to see a magic trick, and was introduced to the art of coin magic. But what truly captured his imagination was a mysterious dragon-themed box on the shelf.  After buying the box, it sparked something deep within him, setting River on the path to becoming the magician he is today.
