Before my graduation at Pacific Northwest College of Art in Portland, Oregon I was introduced to the wild and wonderful world of tattooing. Instantly I saw before me no other path. I apprenticed in San Diego at Superfly Tattoos under Dominic Vasquez before finally making my way here to the legendary Mile High City to begin the next new stage of my career. I am ever obsessed with the themes of light and dark, positive and negative, good and evil. Utilizing my foundation in traditional tattooing, I seek to constantly explore and evolve these complex themes through images that can be read a mile away (almost). Bold lines, decent amounts of black, rich color, and a splash of psychedelic inspiration make for a timeless formula. If it ain’t broke, why fix it?
