Like the Tibetans in Tibet, Brian was raised by Buddhists. Like the Heretics of In Dark Alleys, Brian has always been fascinated by the dark side of things, going out of his way to learn about things most people are happy to ignore. Like the kids in KidWorld, Brian has enjoyed exploring, scavenging and having adventures since his youth. Like the ageless of Hoodoo Blues, Brian is a keen student of history and believes in the value of learning from the mistakes of the past.Contact Brian at creative [at] vajraenterprises [dot] com.
