Hey, my name is Brendan. I'm an artist and an entrepreneur. I'm meticulous and a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to my work. Some would call me a workaholic. I'm goal-oriented and thrive when there's a deadline or major goal in place. I often work after hours to get a job done. But the rest of the time, I'm a very relaxed person.
At a very early age, I knew I wanted to be a musician. Attending Radford
University, I began studying Music Business, but later shifted focus to Media Studies:
Production Technology. My curriculum blended radio and television broadcast, audio/video production, web design, advertizing, journalism and music. After college and a couple years working in commercial radio, I became a professional webmaster and graphic
designer in 2003. Never giving up on music, I have been performing and recording on a professional level since 2001 with hundreds of performances and a dozen albums to my name.
A consummate hard worker, I reside in northern Virginia, pursuing a dual-career as a designer
and musician. I work full-time for a prominent software company where I play a large role on the marketing operations team. I also contribute to a diverse set of projects with various other departments.
I'm available for freelance video, graphic & web design, voice over and music projects in various capacities.
