Hello, friends! It's episode thirty!!!!! Wow what a journey!
Meet Brosnen, a bubbly dude who has always been mistaken as a quiet and awkward guy, but don't mistaken such personality. He's cool to hang out with and throw him with any topics and you'll have a buddy with the same wavelength to chill with.
A full-time tattoo artist as his profession, we talk about his journey from the early days to where he is at now, and his goals for the future and also, we talk about some tattoos that he's grown tired of doing. Haha.
