Tattooing is more than just a craft to me—it's a way to share stories and create something lasting.

I enjoy working in a variety of styles, from bold traditional designs to detailed realism and everything in between. While I love exploring different techniques, I have a special passion for Neo-traditional pieces that blend classic elements with modern flair.

Whether you're looking for something timeless, delicate, or totally unique, I'm here to bring your vision to life with care and creativity. Let's create something beautiful together.
