close-up magic for startups, Fortune50 companies, and national TV.
Sanjeev is a senior at UC Berkeley studying Linguistics and Cognitive Science. Outside of school, he is a professional close-up magician, avid dancer, and public speaking coach (*nostalgic ex-competitor). Although his interests emerged individually, He found so many connections between them, through teaching a college course on charisma and conversation, or even performing magic in Dothraki (the language from Game of Thrones!).
There’s so much more to me than what’s on here: the quirks, the embarrassments, the stories. And I know it’s the same for you. So instead of stalking and judging, let’s get ice cream!
