1) What is your favorite tattoo brand?

I’ve been really impressed with Radiant Tattoo ink, Kwadron Needles and Platinum Rose ointment.

2) What is the most wired/embarrassing thing, you have tried while tattooing?

The weirdest thing I’ve tattooed was an anchor under this guys finger nail. I guess he lost the nail after hitting it with a hammer so he wanted it tattooed. I swear it hurt me to tattoo it as much as it did for him to get it!

3) How did you got in to be a tattoo artist?

I walked into a small tattoo shop in Alaska when I was 18, from there I had made friends with a couple of the artist and just sorta fell into it. I was always into art and I had finally found something that really resonated with me.

4) If you wasn’t a tattoo artist, what else would you do for a living?

I could see myself as a travel guide, taking people on adventures outdoors or tattoo equipment builder, I love designing and modifying current equipment to make it better.

5) Dogs or cats?

Sphynx cat!

6) Favorite tattoo style, and the worst tattoo style for you?

Love working in color Surrealism, I really like to create unique pieces that are outside of the box. And as far as the worst tattoos? I’m not really all the comfortable with traditional tattoos, I’m not very experienced with it.
