Prior to becoming one of Australia’s top speakers and entertainers, Anthony built and ran a joinery company in the South West of England. Starting the business at the young age of 21, Anthony learned quickly that in order to win trust and influence not only his team but his clients, the way he behaved and interacted played a huge role in being successful.
While being a driven entrepreneur, outside of business Anthony had a reserved, shy personality. It was his interest in magic however, that Anthony found was a great way to fast track connecting with people. It allowed him to connect and create intrigue instantly.
In 2003 Anthony took a big hit in business. Suffering a huge financial blow, he quickly found himself spiralling into a world of stress and turmoil. Once driven and focused, Anthony was now reacting negatively to the world around him.
In the midst of his turmoil, a close friend delivered a very confronting and revealing truth; this one truth flicked a switch and changed the course of Anthony’s life forever.
It was this moment in time that Anthony realised the importance of living consciously.
Anthony hit the reset button and in 2009 moved to Australia consciously focused on creating a new life for himself.
Hitting the ground running, Anthony performed 40 shows in 40 nights in 40 venues around Australia to raise money and awareness for the McGrath Foundation. This was the start of Anthony’s quick rise to the top. In 2012 Anthony was the first ever mentalist to perform on Australia’s Got Talent, making it through to the top 3 of the semi-finals and securing his position as Australia’s pre-eminent mentalist.
In 2014 Anthony was requested to join the cast of the world’s biggest touring magic show ‘The Illusionists’.
At the time of writing Anthony has performed over 850 live shows, been seen by more than 5 million people on TV, has appeared on over 100 radio shows and featured in 120 newspapers.
Realising the true power of the skills he had learned and honed, Anthony decided in 2016 to focus his attention on helping others live a more conscious life. Using his demonstrations of mentalism as a vehicle, he began to educate and inspire others to live more consciously.
In 2018 Anthony created his signature program called ‘Ultimate Confidence’, designed help entrepreneurs and professionals looking to increase their confidence, and attract and connect with their ideal clients.
