About
My personality sets me apart from the rest. I am friendly, outgoing, approachable, articulate, and intelligent. I have been teaching kids (and adults), giving presentations, and performing for over 20 years. I am a real people person and always create a fun environment where ever I go. Plus, I know how to make 100s of animals and can make many of them in 15 - 20 seconds. I can work a line faster than most and still have kids choosing the animal they want and the color. This is handy for big festivals with 100s of kids and a never ending line. And I can make more complex things that take more time, which is fun at the small parties. When I perform magic, I am fun and approachable and I keep the kids occupied. My show is silly and entertaining. Kids and adults tell me its awesome! I want to also mention that I am a teacher and really good at presenting to kids of all ages. And that includes 30 hours of STARS training from when I worked at a child care center. From that I also got a MERIT portable background check done, not many people can show a background check that is as extensive as they do. I like making people smile. I have never met someone I could not make smile. Even kids that try not to smile crack under pressure from my silliness. I can not imagination a better job than making people happy. To me its the best thing in the world. Maybe that is why I am so good at it, because I love it and its a joy to do. One thing is for sure, I will brighten up a room and lift a mood at any party, event, or gathering. I just wish I had more hands sometimes, since at gigs where the line is super long, I would love to be able to crank out balloon animals even faster. I hate it when the kids have to stand in a long line.

I organized an elementary school carnival. We hired Dr. Owl as a balloon artist to twist balloons for kids at our event. He did a fabulous job! As the event coordinator he checked in with me first, he was punctual and attentive to each of my requests. He was patient, listening to each of the kids requests, twisting the balloons quickly into the desired shape. At the end of a three hour event, of non stop balloon twisting and always having a line of kids in front of him, he still maintained a positive and friendly demeanor. My hats off in respect to Dr. Owl’s unceasing patience with our kids and professional friendliness. I highly recommend Dr. Owl to any group, we were honored to have him at our event!

Dr. Owl was a great entertainer. He was on time, worked within my budget and the kids loved his presence. I was very thankful he stayed a little longer than scheduled to help with a kiddo that popped his balloon as Dr. Owl was on his way out. He is very skilled at balloon tying and was challenged with some crazy ideas by some of the adults and succeeded (lobster) :) Dr. Owl clearly loves his job!

Great time! Cynthia sure knows how to put on a party. I had fun. The kids were all very good and polite. I was happy to make sure all had what they wanted, before I left.

Was on time. Did great with all the kids. All the kids got what the wanted and even more. Was a pleasure having him entertain the kids with all sort of different balloon characters. Kids were sad to see him leave.

Great kids. They were all so polite and awesome! I had a great time making animals for them. They did not want me to leave. It was hard to go at the end.

I hired Dr. Owl for my daughters 4th birthday. He did a fantastic job, the kids all loved the show and we're hooked the entire time. He was on time and very accommodating, would highly recommend.
