During her years working in a special needs-only building, Amanda integrated magic into her daily interactions with the children. She discovered that magic tricks were a powerful tool for encouraging kids toward their goals and served as a fun way to build rapport. This experience, along with collaboration with talented educators and therapists, helped her adapt her magic shows to accommodate individuals with diverse needs.

Amanda has been a professional magician since 2014, making her debut with a show benefiting the Vasculitis Foundation. Her love for magic began at a young age—she has been performing since she was eight, with her first public show taking place in the fifth grade. Today, Amanda has a strong online following, with high video view counts that reflect her engaging style and widespread appeal.

Amanda uses her online platform to promote positivity and showcase her magic skills.

She encourages viewers to start with simple tricks and work their way up, fostering a sense of confidence and achievement.

As a magician, Amanda’s performances emphasize positive reinforcement and her commitment to creating a safe and inclusive environment. Her goal is to make magic accessible and enjoyable for everyone, regardless of their background or ability.
