Tattooing is just something I lept into a year after having my first Child in 2011.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been an artist my whole life.
From drawing next to my father creating electronic schematics,
To watching my older brother do graffiti.

All that translated into feeling free in the arts, then turned into becoming a musician.

Fast foreward to one day in my home basement bar over a couple drinks, my best friend said “we should get a kit”. I said no way…we ordered anyway. After waiting months for it to show up we started practicing. Couple weeks later I started an apprenticeship while working full time.

Onward to 2023, I started my own studio. The South Elgin Tattoo Company.

The rest?

You’ll have to hop in my chair to find out!
