Hello, hello! The name's Brogan...derived from the Gaelic word 'brog' meaning shoe. Exciting, I know.

A born and raised Floridian, I've grown weary of palm trees and colorless falls. As of June 2012, I have been working to establish myself as a transplanted New Yorker.

I am a person of many dreams and aspirations, and should (could) I settle on just one for long enough, it will (would) inevitably become a reality. My move to NYC has turned out to be a dream fulfilled by a whimsical choice, and I can't wait to see where this adventure leads me.

I'm a performer with a spiritual side. I enjoy experiencing food, tea, thoughtful walks, a glass of wine and a host of other things. A Wine sipping foodie buddy would be pretty fantastic.

As of this very moment, I'm working on this profile. I know...I party hard.

I am now and will always be an actor/singer/performer of some variety, on some stage, in some place. That said, I spend my days looking for ways to improve myself artistically, spiritually, and (last but not least) financially.

I work a part time job in a new age metaphysical shop selling stones, candles, incense and all manner of things spiritual. Before I ever even thought of being an actor, I imagined I would live an amazing life owning a shop much like the one I work in now, and I'm loving every minute I get to learn more about this business.

Outside of work, I seek out (affordable) acting/vocal/dance classes, explore everywhere, write blogs on Mondays, film vlogs on Thursdays, create fantasy worlds in my head, contemplate opening themed bars...and many more things than I could conceivably list here. Every single day is an adventure! What better place to get lost and find yourself anew than New York City?

+adventure (large or small)
+cheese (no explanation needed)
+imagination (in myself and others)
+just a pinch of magick (to keep life interesting)

+what I want to be when I grow up. I know exactly what I want, it's more the matter of making my way there that occupies my thoughts.

+different structures and systems of magic throughout the many fantasy worlds.

+rocks, gems and minerals. This is a recent development due heavily to my current employer. They've brought out an interest in me I didn't even know was there.

+the nature of the Universe and where we all fall into place.

Working until 9pm, then who knows?! There's a great chance of catching me with friends having a wine & movie night.

I once had a sex dream about Aaron Carter. We were both teenagers at the time. His limo broke down outside of my house, and he came it to use the phone. It was magical.

...you like to laugh out loud in public, don't mind dancing in the street (or at least don't mind when I do so), or consider yourself a geek/nerd of some variety.

...you enjoy exploring new places in the city as well as new things about yourself.

...you have any suggestions for a local (and affordable) photographer. I could use some updated head shots.

...you want to. Let's have a chat, shall we?
