I've been working in this industry for over 15 years. Skateboarding and punk rock were the gateway into my career while comic books and graffiti were the backbone of my earlier style.  In the beginning, because of my background I started with a bit of a new school style but after studying many different forms of tattooing I finally feel that Im coming into my own.  I describe my style as Illustrative Symbolism.  I really enjoy Japanese tattoos and eastern symbolism.  Symbolism in general is one of the most important parts of tattooing to me.  I love hearing my clients story, taking the subject and creating a composition that flows with their body.  Creating wearable artwork they carry with them forever  means a lot to me. I consider myself lucky.
