Brendan, a shoreline-Connecticut native, has carved a distinctive path for himself in the piercing industry since his career began. His journey took him to Los Angeles, where he has honed his craft over the past six years, building a reputation for precision and artistry. His time in California, specifically his time as a Piercer and Studio Manager of Aesthetic Ambition in Santa Monica, shaped a keen-eyed approach that emphasizes individual style, meticulous placement, and a strategic focus on jewelry selection that best suits each client’s unique anatomy. As the owner of Fairfield's premier piercing-only studio, he's bringing his expertise and passion back to his home state.
Driven by a desire to return to home and be closer to friends, family, and loved ones, Brendan opened Stonegarden in May of 2025. In doing so, he's created a space that reflects his commitment to quality, and flawlessly showcases his Eastern roots and upbringing. His commitment to quality is best shown through his decision to partner with BVLA as a member of their short list of exclusive retailers. His clients deserve only the best, and BVLA produces nothing short of it.
Additionally, Brendan is a proud membership holder of the Association of Professional Piercers (APP), to ensure he employs the most current and highest health and safety standards for his clients.
