"I've been tattooing professionally since 2001, after a three-year apprenticeship with Pat Sinatra. I still consider myself a new tattooer.
"I come from a family of artists. One could say it's in the blood. I enjoy many different kinds of art - painting, glass work, metal and wood. But there is no art form like tattoo. This art is not still; it breathes and moves. Tattoo art is magical for both artist and collector. It is a constant life experience in humility.
"I am forever grateful to my mentor, teacher and friend, Pat Sinatra. She who believed in me and my ability to perform this magical art. I am blessed to be surrounded by talented women, women who love and respect the Art of Tatu."
