I’ve been tattooing for over 20 years, long enough to know this isn’t just about ink. It’s about trust, connection, and the stories we carry on our skin.

My journey in tattooing has taken me across the world, from running my own shop to working guess spots internationally, and even judging conventions alongside legends like Lyle Tuttle. I’ve had the privilege of spending time with the great Kate Hellebrandas well, both while working in the Phillippines, learning, sharing, and staying grounded in the tradition and culture that makes this craft so powerful.

I started the old-school way: machines in hand, sketchbooks full of flash, and a hunger to do the work properly. Since then, I’ve tattooed thousands of people, from walk-ins to full-body commitments, and still aproach every tattoo like it’s the most important one I’ve ever done.
