"I had always been interested in art, but I didn't start drawing until high school. I started drawing abstract designs and then eventually moved on to portraits. I ended up going to Tennessee Wesleyan College for art/education. After graduating I started my tattoo apprenticeship. I was working in Knoxville for a couple years before opening my own studio in Maryville,Tn.

Due to my art background, I love tattooing black and grey realism. I specialize in portraits, but I love adding splashed of color into my tattoos as well. My tattoo style is constantly evolving.

Since I began tattooing in 2010 I have always focused on growth. In order to give my clients the best experience possible I have dedicated my life to my career. I take pride in my tattoos and my tattoo studio”
