“Bren came onto the scene the like a bat out of hell. He was an intense, caring and sensitive guy with a beautiful kind feel about him. When it comes to the business of acting, Bren is also all over it. Bren picks things up real quick and alarmingly well. He still has the record for finishing parts of the course brilliantly and very fast. Having had a world class discipline in martial arts he is a rare breed that can have more than one world class discipline. An amazing actor, teacher and martial artist. Bren was and continues to be a pleasure to be around. With talent and discipline so high it’s no surprise to see Bren do so well.”
