Founder: Tyler Ringhofer

Hi everyone! My name is Tyler Ringhofer, and I started the Magic Speaks Languages Initiative in order to provide a unique and innovative way to learn languages and culture through magic. During the Covid-19 pandemic, I started the Art of Illusions magic show program based in Orange County, California as a way to give back to my community through laughter, fun, and excitement. I hope this new initiative will bring just as much and even more joy for all members who want to learn about culture through unique magic storytelling!

Jack Frankenfield

Hi! My name is Jack Frankenfield and I am a senior. I joined our school Magic Club last year with no prior experience in magic and it had been a great experience to volunteer in a fun and creative way. Over the course of last year, I taught myself magic and would perform these tricks at our monthly magic shows. It is always so fun to do these magic shows because I think that is the best part about magic is the spectator’s reaction, and to see the smiles we put on their faces makes me happy as well.

 

Truman Huang

Hi! My name is Truman. When I first joined the Magic Club I was looking for a place to hang out with friends, but the fulfillment of making Senior Citizens happy is what made me continue.

Gabriel Park

Hi! I have lived in Korea until age eleven and is passionate about all forms of science, especially how physics, chemistry, and biology connect. Magic, to me, is a medium to connect with people, spread levity in a serious world, and a chance to scream internally for a solid minute when a spectator somehow mishandles the cards and messes up the trick.
