I’ve been creating art since before I can remember - it’s been the one thing that has given me a voice throughout my life and the one thing that I could always count on. I was raised mostly in Colorado and still consider the mountains home even though I’m now in Florida ⸺ Do you have more male or female clients? I mostly work with women, but I do have a lot of male clients as well. I think it’s about a 70/30 split. A lot of my clients are in the LGBTQ+ community, and I love getting to work with so many amazing individuals ⸺ Are there

any tattoos you would refuse to do? (face, private areas, etc.)

I don’t tattoo on faces or hands for anyone under 25 and not already heavily tattooed or in a solid career that has clearance from their boss. I would hate to be the reason someone can’t get into their job or career because of an elective procedure ⸺ What did your family and friends think about you getting into the tattoo business? My friends were extremely supportive. Even the members of my family who don’t like tattoos have been surprisingly supportive. I promised my grandmother at 13 I wouldn’t be covered in tattoos when I got older, but here we are ⸺ What is the most important advice you can give someone new to the art of tattooing? Don’t let the boys get you down. The industry is full of people who are going to try to discourage you and make you feel like you aren’t good enough. Keep drawing, and don’t give up. ✕
