About the Artist
There hasn’t been a day where art has not been prevalent in my life. I recognize that I am beyond lucky to be able to do what I love for a career and continue to bring custom color tattoos and artwork into the world. When I originally got into tattooing, I had no clue of the doors it would open, the relationships that I would form, and all the places it would take me. It’s been such an amazing road of experiences, travel, and growth!
Aging on tattoos! Shows how things actually heal out and settle in to their new home! One of my favorite clients wears them with pride. @mattwinneyx24x disclaimer: the lines in her legs are from him sitting in the chair🤙🏼 #webgallery
I guess I’m posting some older pieces for a bit. I was hesitating. But they deserve love too. #webgallery

“Summon your eagle powers!” This may be the best end to a year. Sometimes it’s the simple stuff that makes me smile the most. It’s a wrap! #nacholibre #jackblack @jackblack #lordschips #elote #luchador #chancho #eaglepowers #ramsesisthebest #webgallery

First session yesterday on this jazzy astronaut! Volume up please. Thanks @ayoungdiesel for coming out from NY to collect this portion of his sleeve. #sandiego #sandiegotattoos @balancingacttattoocraft #webgallery
I love doing fur kid tattoos. Whether they are still alive or passed over the rainbow bridge. They are some of the most loyal lives we will ever experience. This is my sister who had to put her girl down just before she came to visit. I was honored to do it for her. Thanks @allie740 #dogsofinstagram #mansbestfriend #webgallery

Rates:
A non-refundable deposit of $250 is required to schedule an appointment and will be applied to your last session. Consults are always free and welcomed!
Starting Jan 1st, 2022 the normal rate for a new tattoo and original design is $250 per hour. Cover-up tattoos that do not get lightening sessions with laser is $300 per hour. I will definitely let you know if it’s possible to achieve the cover-up with or without laser. The ultimate goal of a cover-up is to not end up with a bigger mess.
Accepted forms of payment include Cash, Venmo, and PayPal.
What to expect:
Currently I am only doing phone consultations and are recommended prior to our meeting. The studio is a private full rooftop workspace that is by appointment only. You will get a one on one session making this a perfect space for any celebrity, athlete, or anyone that prefers some privacy during their sessions.
For booking information, email: (Please allow 5-7 days for a response.)
