I’ve been drawing since I can remember. I started off very young and started drawing realistic art by middle school. My Father was a Naval Architect and my Mother an illustrator. I grew up with the love and support and tools to excel at art.

After High School I joined the Navy and upon getting out enrolled in art school. I was accepted to Disney’s animator school but decided on a fine art path instead. I studied classical illustration, painting, interior design, drafting and printmaking. After college I worked as a freelance illustrator until I discovered tattooing.

I have now been tattooing for 20 years as of 2023. I love meeting new clients and bringing their ideas to life. I am so fortunate to have a background that allows for varying styles of tattoos and illustration. I could not have done this without the love and support from all of my wonderful clients, family and friends. I can’t wait to see what comes next in this journey. Hopefully many more years of creating tattoos and art for and with my community.
