Born in San Diego, California into a navy family, I moved around a lot in childhood years and ended up mainly growing up in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. I spent my childhood laser focused on skateboarding. Surrounded by tattoos from an early age, I first started getting tattooed at Inksmith & Rogers in Jacksonville. I moved back to Southern California when I was 21 and began a new chapter of my life which was heavily focused on artistic expression. Forever grateful for tattooing & Frank Ball Jr for bringing me into this world.
