I’ve been drawing for as long as I can remember—not in a romantic way, but because I spent a lot of time waiting for the bus or grounded in my room with no TV or video games. I sold my first painting at eight at a school art expo and later earned an Art degree from Suffolk University. After years of barely breaking even in the art world, I found tattooing. Learning from Gian Karle pushed me into Neo-Traditional, and in 2023 I began blending it with anime-inspired themes.
