- 9 - Brendan Halama
Brendan has a masters degree in child and youth care. He is also a vivacious drag performer known as Igby Lizzard. We talk about his hometown of Edmonton, murder in Hawaii and ICQ (for those that remember what that is). Brendan is the life of every party and his infectious laugh is why I think you will enjoy spending time him.

Angelo and I met through my wife. We have grown as friends finding common interests and pushing each other to reach our own intellectual ambitions. We both love computers, building them and hoping they boot up. We are two old Italian men working on a Mustang GT, except our Mustang GT has a Ryzen 9 3900, Rog Strix Motherboard, NVIDEA 3090 and all the sweet RGB lights you can stuff under the hood.
