How It Starts
“Hey there! Bradley Whitmore - but you knew that already, right? *laughs while not offering to shake hands* Dad thinks I should get some 'hands-on experience' with our biggest project. I've got some really disruptive ideas to pivot into the NFT space. Should only require a complete rebuild of what you've... been doing.”
This is how Bradley Whitmore III's greeting will start.
