I enjoy the collaboration with a client to create a design that will last a lifetime. So many things influence my work, but I especially like finding inspiration from designs found in vintage textiles, botanical illustrations, and art nouveau. I love tattooing, and I'm continually inspired to improve and be challenged with each tattoo. I've spent the last 10 years tattooing in the Rose City (6 as co-owner of New Rose Tattoo) and have recently moved just north of the Lilac City. ![]() That first small tattoo sparked a desire that was finally ignited in 2004 when I learned to tattoo under the training of the late Rio DeGennaro. ![]() I've worked as a designer, a pastry chef, opened and operated a small espresso bar, but I enjoy doing creative work the most.

Tattoo art is interactive: once a piece is put into the skin, it moves within the community it sparks up conversations between complete strangers it is not stuck in a museum or on someone's wall like painting or sculpture. It conveys your message to the world without you having to say a word. Tattoos are personal: because it is administered by a human hand (and not a machine), and worn on a human body, every tattoo is unique and means something to the collector. Whether you know exactly what you want or don't have a clue, a process of discovery will always happen. ![]() Tattooing is collaborative: by its very nature, tattooing requires participation from the client/collector as well as from the artist. Tattooing is the ultimate live art experience: I have always been drawn to the human form both as a subject and as a medium.
