As a native Southern Californian, I gain my inspiration from the wide array of local cities and beaches, and their cultures that flourish around me. My entire life has been lead by the drive to create. Over the years I've worked with many different mediums: Hand painting surfboards in several galleries along PCH, custom painting bicycles, pinstriping, acrylic painting, henna, airbrush, and more. Even ten years of music roots on the drums. I've always followed the flow of my creativity and find ultimate happiness in exploring different ways to channel my spirit. For nearly a decade I also worked as a children's art teacher, equipping our local youth with this foundation of artistic expression. Giving back to the community and serving others will always have a place in my heart. Each experience truly unique, yet divinely purposeful to my journey with art.
In June of 2016, my path lead me to Vatican Studios in Orange County, CA. The opportunity to be Studio Manager of this incredible haven for artists opened my life in ways I never knew possible at the time. Under this roof, I've been able to find myself as an artist (and as a human) deeper than ever before. With close guidance and care from my mentors, my journey continues to unfold and feels more beautiful than ever now being given the opportunity to translate my art through tattoos. For the past 4 years I have been channeling my creativity through the art of tattooing. Each unique request I receive warms my soul and I look forward to blessing skin for years to come. I have found my happy place in tattooing, and am truly grateful for everyone who comes to take a seat in my client chair.
