Steve Haffner Vroom Vroom Veer Stories
Grew up Louisville KY he was shy and loved creative writing and performing on stage in plays and shows
After Highschool, instead of pursuing those things that he loved; he studied computer science in college of course; he loved computers too
Later, he worked in various roles in IT; found a book on magic in a clearance section; he bought the book and tried out the magic on his kids; the kids kind of liked magic, but Steve loved it!
Had the idea of starting a business doing magic for family events, birthday party's even trade shows
Really found his niche in corporate speaking gigs; the first gig wasn't great from his point of view he had some learning to do
He joined the National Speakers Association and even became his local chapter president to hone his skills as a speaker
Now using magic tricks to entertain and educate corporate audiences with a variety of topics and how magic can help us to see our blind spots
