about me

In the realm where skin becomes canvas and stories are etched in ink, I fell in love with tattooing and set out to leave an indelible mark on the world of tattoo artistry.

From an early age, I harbored a fascination with the visual arts. Whether it was sketching in the margins of notebooks or experimenting with different mediums, an innate creativity flowed through my veins. However, it wasn't until I began collecting my own tattoos and learning more about this ancient art that I found my true calling.

I began apprenticing in Barrio Logan under the guidance of a seasoned tattoo artist and immersed myself in the rich tapestry of tattoo culture. From learning the intricacies of tattoo styles and history to working to master the art of design transfer, every aspect of the craft became a sacred rite of passage.

My artistic style is an eclectic fusion of traditional and contemporary influences, a reflection of my graphic design background and diverse palette of inspirations. Nature's delicate details and the vibrant tapestry of human experiences all find a place in my portfolio. My designs are not just tattoos; they are visual narratives that capture the essence of individual stories, turning the skin into a living, breathing canvas.

The apprenticeship journey has not been without its challenges. Late nights of meticulous practice, the humbling process of learning from mistakes, and the constant quest for perfection have sculpted me into a resilient and dedicated artist. Each tattoo is an opportunity to refine my skills, an alchemical process where ink and skill converge to create something magical.

With every stroke of the needle, I seek to transmute emotions and memories into timeless pieces of art. I am on a quest for mastery, driven by an insatiable passion to create tattoos that resonate with the soul.

the vision

I envision a revolution within the tattoo industry, fueled by a passionate commitment to challenge norms and create a sanctuary for self-expression. Embracing the belief that tattoos are not just skin-deep but profound reflections of individual truths, I aspire to craft a safe haven where authenticity thrives.

In my vision, the tattoo studio becomes more than a place for ink; it transforms into a refuge where individuals can explore the depths of their identities without hesitation. I dream of dismantling stereotypes and fostering an environment where clients feel empowered to unveil their unique narratives.

This vision includes collaborating with fellow, like-minded artists and build a private space for my clients’ tattoo experience. This vision is not just about tattoos; it's a commitment to creating a space where personal truths are celebrated, and self-expression knows no bounds.
