About Me
I began my journey into body art in Detroit, MI, as a piercer from 1996 to 2009, and then I transitioned to tattooing in 2009 at Eternal Tattoos. My mentors and influences include Marshal Bennett, Bob Tyrell (when he was in town), Scott Shultz, and Terry Welker, known as Tramp, the owner of Eternal Tattoos. I specialize in black and grey realism, semi-color realism mixed with neo-traditional elements, and black illustration styles like dot work.
The pandemic made me realize that we cannot wait for what we want. I longed for land that I could protect, preferably close to or within the mountains, to expand my other practices. In 2021, I moved to Pittsburgh and have been working at Wyld Chyld Tattoo ever since.
Beyond tattooing, I am a mother and a wife, specializing in herbalism and permaculture. I have also felt a spiritual calling to become a Full Mesa Shamanic Practitioner. My training follows the Peruvian tradition, and I am here to serve you.
