In addition to starring on America's Got Talent, Piff has been a magic consultant for Penn & Teller and appeared on their popular Fool Us TV show. For the past year, he's been breaking box-office records as the resident act at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

Off the field, he's led a wide range of humanitarian efforts through the Nick Lowery Youth Foundation and other organizations.
