We had the good fortune of connecting with Brian Abreu and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Brian, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
I have always had the mindset of entrepreneurship. Background in business at UGA opened my eyes to starting my own businesses. This particular business was a product of past ventures combined with a unique opportunity to use our castle.

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I got where I am today with persistence and consistency. You have to learn to adapt. That was one of the truths I learned in business school was that your first businesses fail. You have to keep going and overcoming whatever is put in front of you.

Doing the right thing, brings the right thing. In this day and age, the world needs more inclusivity and love.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
Funny you ask that, one of my best friends flew in from Los Angelos and I took him around my renaissance festival. Drank a mead, ate a turkey leg, and went to go see the Blacksmith.

Walking around anywhere and seeing people enjoy themselves is the one of the best parts of life, especially if you have someone to share it with.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I’ve made so many friends in the LARPing and gaming community, I have all of them to thank for the encouragement and support in all of my ventures.
