Mix magic with robotics, add hilarious slapstick, and voila—you have Mario the Maker Magician! Mario infuses classic magic tricks and illusions with high-tech robotic innovation to create an assortment of homemade contraptions that do his comedic bidding. Infectiously positive and bursting with heart, Mario is on a mission to entertain and inspire future computer programmers, AI specialists, and robotic engineers along the way. He has appeared on Sesame Street, NBC’s Universal Kids, The Tonight Show, and a 2018 tour with illusionist David Blaine, who calls him “the best kids’ magician in the world!”
