Five approaches shaped by years of drawing, tattooing, and studying form.
BEGINNINGS
I started tattooing eight years ago. Before the needle, there was the page. I drew constantly, mostly in black ink and graphite, learning through repetition, observation, and time spent refining details by hand.
The first piece I tattooed on someone else's skin was small and exactly what they wanted. I haven't stopped since.
STYLE
My work lives in five styles: black and grey realism, fine line, anime, horror, and illustration. They sound different on paper, but on the body they share the same logic of being slow, intentional, and built to age well. I draw every piece by hand before any needle touches skin.
I'm not interested in tattoos that look loud at six months and dated at six years. I work for the long version.
TODAY
I work out of a private studio in California, take a limited number of pieces per month, and consult with every client before booking. Each appointment is built around one person, one idea, one session.
Outside the studio, I model for brand projects and write about tattoo work, including the process, aftercare, and the craft side most artists never publish. The two practices feed each other.

"A tattoo isn't decoration. It's a decision that lives on someone's body for the rest of their life. The least I can do is treat it like that."
