Tattooing professionally for over 16 yrs. Ive been drawing and practicing in different mediums for as long as I can remember, and have been tattooing since I was 16. Later the arts turned into the focus academically where I majored in art education and minored in fine art throughout community college, NIU and onto The Art Institute of Chicago where I attended for a year before fully focusing my attention on tattooing. The tattooing career started with a 4yr. apprenticeship from Spider Tattooz where I was taught every aspect in tattooing from A-Z. It was here that I learned needle making and machine building/repair too constructing and completing a successful design that would later become a well executed tattoo. I am eternally grateful to Spider(you will be missed,rip)his wife Glo and Darrel for the patience and support,thank you. Becoming a tattooer is what I've always wanted to do. It’s a craft I feel fortunate to be apart of and I show that appreciation by creating tattoos that people will be happy with for the rest of their lives.
