Location

Born in Lower Michigan and raised in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Love all forms of art, been snowboarding most of my life, play guitar, and am a talented cook.  I currently work out of Deft Tattoo Studio in Kingsford Michigan. I love drawing things outside of the box, putting different elements together that are not normally thought of. Neo Traditional with eye popping colors and straight black illustration style tattoos are not only my favorite things to draw but tattoo as well. Growing up my family always had graffiti books and tattoo magazines I would draw out of. I had great people to learn from in and now I am working with a great one of a kind tattoo artist from whom I learn something new everyday. I went to school originally for graphic design and quickly learned I could not handle sitting at a desk for the rest of my life looking at a computer screen. I needed a hands on job that I could express my art until my heart stops beating. And I found that job. I couldn't ask for anything better than to put my art on some ones skin for life. I truly feel I have the best job in the world.
