Started tattooing in 2000, while I was Active Duty Air Force. I was stationed outside of Omaha Nebraska and found a shop to apprentice at in my off duty time. I went on to work at Grinn & Barrett and later purchased the shop in 2006. I had loosely planned to stay for a year and pass it on,..that year turned into ten. I ended up becoming super attached to the shop and the life that I had created. Omaha was a perfect jump off point to travel around the globe tattooing. Although, I never lost sight of wanting to relocate back in New England. In 2016, I finally moved back and passed the shop on to my former apprentice knowing it would be in good hands. I am currently pursuing a lifelong dream of going to art school in Boston and tattooing at Kaleidoscope Tattoo.
