About the entertainment
Rmax Goodwin is a Los Angeles magician and mentalist. Raised in Los Angeles, Rmax began performing professionally at the Magic Castle —an invitation-only club in Hollywood—when he was just 14 years old. His award-winning magic is distinguished by expert sleight-of-hand, witty banter, and an approachable style. His impressive technique earned him multiple appearances on Fox’s Masters of Illusion, as well as high-profile engagements at corporate retreats, trainings, and galas; birthday and holiday parties; charity fundraisers; film premieres; and other private events.
