Perched atop Sunset Boulevard, the Chateau Marmont exudes an unmistakable aura of timeless elegance. Recently, I had the distinct honor of performing as a professional magician and mentalist at its illustrious penthouse. Join me as I delve into the intersection of past and present, recounting the unforgettable evening that unfolded amidst the glitz and glamour of Hollywood's most iconic venue…
Read MoreIn the fast-paced world of trade shows, where businesses vie for attention amidst a sea of competitors, the art of experiential marketing stands out as a powerful strategy. As an exhibitor, you know that merely showcasing your products isn't enough; you need to create an experience that draws attendees to your booth like a magnet. That's where…
Read MoreWe stayed in Kihei on the island of Maui. Some of the highlights of our trip were attending Warren and Annabelle’s magic nightclub (Rated by many as the best show on Maui, and I whole heartedly agree), visiting the waterfalls on the road to Hana and enjoying a dip at one of the pools with a waterfall behind us, eating some of the best ahi poke I’ve ever had, and simply sitting out on the lanai and enjoying the view and the breeze…
Read MoreA little magic to brighten your day, and get the week started right.
Read MoreIn the last year and a half I’ve been fortunate enough to have performed well over a hundred shows for audiences all over the world; for groups as small as 5 people and as large as 1600 people. Every show has been an amazing experience allowing me to connect with more audiences than I would’ve if I had been performing in-person events.
Read MoreIn February I put on my very first ticketed magic show for the general public titled, All You Need Is Love, and it sold out quickly. Since then, I’ve been getting requests for a repeat presentation. Apparently there were people who wanted to attend, but couldn’t make the date, so I decided to put the show on again, but this time with a new name. Saturday, April 3, 2021 (the day before Easter) I’m presenting an encore presentation of The Virtual Magic Show with Lou Serrano.
Read MoreIf you take a bunch of crabs and you out them in a bucket, as one of those crabs tries to claw its way out, the other crabs will pull it down. In the end, none of the crabs are able to escape. This happens with people as well. It’s callee the Crab In The Bucket Mentality. “If I can’t have it, then neither can you.”
The more successful you become, the more evident this is true. The more successful you become in your career, your business, or in life in general, the more you will see people trying to drag you down. Maybe it’s because of envy, jealousy, or they have a small-minded mentality. You can’t let these people stop you from doing what you’re doing. You can acknowledge those people, especially if they’re directly attacking you, but there’s different ways to go about it.
Read MoreIt all started with a phone call from longtime friend and PR professional, Darren Shuster. “Would you be interested in consulting for a toy company that is putting out a series of magic sets designed for kids?” My instant reply was an enthusiastic, “Maybe.”
After discussing the company and its founders, I realized their core values were very much in alignment with mine, so making the decision to work with them was an easy one.
Originally we anticipated this project would take six months to complete, but six months soon turned into nine months. Sourcing and creating the products during a pandemic that lead to a global lockdown certainly didn’t help things, but I must say that my experience with everyone at Blue Marble was an incredibly enjoyable one.

Read MoreThis past holiday season was one of my busiest on record. Virtual magic shows were a big hit with company events of all sizes. Companies like Louis Vuitton, Remy Cointreau, McKinsey & Co, Wayfair, and many more were looking for ways to connect with their employees and clients in a fun, exciting, and meaningful way.
The challenge was to create an experience that was fun, engaging, and interactive, an experience that would combat Zoom fatigue that was creeping up in many organizations, and an experience where the attendees felt respected and appreciated.
Read MoreVirtual magic and mentalism is on the upswing! With the holiday season upon us, more and more organizations are looking for virtual entertainment that will engage and entertain their guests and attendees.
