About Communication & Stagecraft

In early 2025, two masters of their craft came together with a revolutionary vision: to transform how people communicate by blending the captivating power of magic with the universal appeal of humor.

David Lai and Harith Iskander recognized that the most memorable communicators aren't just those who speak clearly—they're those who can captivate, engage, and leave lasting impressions. In our modern world, where attention spans are shorter than ever, traditional communication methods simply aren't enough.

Our Mission

We help transform students, business leaders, and professionals into confident speakers who can command any room, win over any audience, and turn every interaction into a memorable experience.
