“ I’m always honored to bring my clients dreams to life through tattooing. I think that this is such a unique opportunity, to be able to modify our bodies. I know some people just want a cool tattoo or to memorialize a moment in time. For others, to feel more in your own skin, to feel more comfortable in your own body, that’s it! That moment is when I get the satisfaction, seeing someone stand a little taller, smile a little bigger, or hearing them express their gratitude. I understand not feeling “one” or “in sync” with the body I inhabit. Tattooing has changed that for me. Every time I see a new section of my body covered with a beautiful piece of art, I feel more comfortable. I like to think that I bring a calmness and empathetic approach to tattooing for my clients. All in all, I’m here to help others, I want to help you feel more confident in who you are.”
