About
I try to offer unique items and to focus on getting the little details right -- maybe it means adding another 160 or 260 or round to complete a creation or maybe it means bringing a few more colors to a gig, or carrying a half-dozen markers so you can give the cat green eyes when the adorable four year old asks for them, or just practicing a few extra hours. I'm a huge fan of making bigger things -- giant spiders, superheros, Octopi, a full size monkey, that kind of thing. Also, I love making wearables -- flowers that fit on your wrist, wings, jetpacks (yeah!), and of course hats. I love my job! I get invited to all the best parties and get to hang out with happy, excited people. My job is to be creative and fun and to make people smile and sometimes I get to get outdoors and meet really interesting, fun people. I tell people all the time how much I enjoy this and I'm always talking up the last job and the next job to people around me. Balloon twisting is a really social and creative job which I think matches up perfectly for some of my character traits. Also, Balloons are just fun! Balloons + Drew = Fun, Drewsballoons=Fun!

Hired on Thumbtack

It's unbelievable what Drew can create from balloons! We hired him for our son's adoption party and he created anything anyone requested, ranging from superheroes to princesses to motorcycles to hula girls. I wish I could post photos because it was truly amazing. I'd gladly hire Drew again and wholeheartedly recommend him to others. The kids got a kick out of not only his balloon creations, but also the process. Many of them sat mesmerized for most of the time he was here. I also appreciated Drew's flexibility. We ended up having more kids than anticipated and Drew stayed until everyone got a balloon, which ended up being quite a bit longer than we had originally agreed to. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Drew was a huge hit at my son's 4th birthday party. He was calm, patient and funny with the swarm of kids surrounding him. Everyone (including the adults) was really impressed with his balloon animals. I was looking for entertainment that was fun and would work for an indoor party at home - Drew was perfect!

Andrew was great with the kids and he did some amazing balloon twisting. Was an instant hit at the b'day party. The face painting was excellent as well.

FAQs

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    There are two major conferences (Twist and Shout and The Florida Super Jam) each year and smaller ones. Also there are educational dvds and books, web resources and just old fashioned face-to-face learning.

  • Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

    I recently had a gig at the University of New England which I was a little worried about since it was college students and they can be a mixed bag. It went great though. There was a line the whole event and I had some great conversations with future doctors, marine biologists, physical therapists and other wicked smart science students.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Whenever hiring an entertainer ask for references or for a background check to have been done. Thumbtack has done a background check on me and I can also always give references as to my ability and character. If someone can provide these, you may want to re-think hiring them. I also ask that there is always a trusted adult - parent, family member, or staff person - within eyesight of myself and any children at all times for the protection of the performer and the clientele this is just a best practice to follow.
