Into art since I was a little Rhode Island tyke, I've always read comics, studied art and watched a lot of movies.  Mutants, monsters and all types of creatures fascinated me - Fast forward 20 some years, not much has changed! Taking 2 years of fine arts courses at Rhode Island College, and sharpening the focus to Illustration at the Art Institute of Boston definitely helped further my love for and skills in art.   After a few years of kicking around trying to find an apprenticeship, I landed in the right place in New Haven, CT - where I've been tattooing for the last 5 years professionally.  Now, I'm bringing it back to RI, at Powerline Tattoo!  I try to be versatile in my tattooing, working in full color, black and grey, or fusing the two.. Some of my favorite things to tattoo, are creepy critters, animals, bio-mechanical/organics and just about anything illustrative! I'm heavily influenced by many different types of art, and try to combine parts of all of them into what I tattoo.  I like to put my own little twist to everything I do, and try my best to exceed clients expectations!
