Minnesota born and raised, I’ve been tattooing since 2015 when my love for art continued into my love of tattoos. I started my journey after high school and have never looked back. I do a variety of styles but love doing watercolor, neo-traditional, and cartoon subjects.

ARTIST

Calling Minnesota home for my entire life, I knew I’d eventually find my way into the industry. Living in Mpls I had established myself as an aspiring tattoo artist and landed an apprenticeship here at Brass Knuckle around 2019. Under the guidance at Brass Knuckle, my friends and respected artists I was able to get my license. Working full time, dealing with a pandemic, and overcoming a city in unrest wasn’t easy but I was able to become a fully licensed artist in 2021.

ARTIST

The newest artist to the studio, I’m Minneapolis born and raised. An artist since I could hold a pencil. BFS in illustration from the School of Visual Arts in NYC. My passion for art is driven by the belief that art should be accessible to everyone. The joy I find in tattooing is being able to do just that.
