Thomas is a Chilean / Canadian, who now calls London mi casa. His background is in Electronic Engineering, but he was always passionate about magic - performing, learning and teaching it as well as the theory of magic. So after ten years of studying magic in three different magic school (unfortunately none of them Hogwarts) and working as an engineer for a while, he decided to come to the UK to become a full-time wizard. Thomas loves to create meaningful connections with people through his magic. He is an avid reader of philosophy, psychology and self-development (at this moments he’s probably reading three books at the same time!).
Rubens' background is diverse to say the least! He followed the family tradition and started his working life as a lawyer in Brazil. After ten years and a stint in NY however, he realised law wasn’t the right place for him. He made the decision to return to Brazil and moved into ad-land as a Copywriter. He eventually became a Creative Director at Ogilvy, leading many award-winning campaigns for global clients. In 2012 Rubens brought his family to the UK to do a Masters in Digital Media Management at Hyper Island. This was to be another pivotal point in his career and in 2013, he founded Abracademy with the dream of helping people grow, personally and professionally.
Jack currently studies English at Goldsmiths so he has a passion for stories. He always wants to use this to create captivating stories in his magic performances. Jack has spent time abroad teaching magic as well as performing regularly at different UK venues, from restaurants to care homes and for SEN kids.
