‍ ‍I started my tattooing career in Long Beach, CA, with the support and mentorship of Klown Saravia, Jake Masri,  Pablo Aponte & Dano Everette. All of them are a direct branch of Jose Lopez and Lowrider Tattoo.

Growing up in North County San Diego, I was surrounded by skateboarding. It became my first love. In my early 20s I started looking into becoming an artist for the industry and quickly realized there was a lot of work to be done. Through that process I learned to screen print, draw from still life, design graphics, and much more.

In 2018, I got my chest blasted by Pablo Aponte. I witnessed the process, what it took to get it done &  there was no turning back. It reminded me of skateboarding for many reasons. Being a graphic designer was no longer an option—I wanted to be a tattoo artist.

I’ve been going at it since 2020 and plan on tattooing for quite some time. I look forward to any ideas that are sent my way & hope to see you soon.
