Live at the Castro #2 : Ace Vencenzo

Ace Vencenzo is a bold American traditional Tattooer from Chicago, IL. He's been tattooing professionally since 2013 after he finished his apprenticeship at Walker’s Point Tattoo in Milwaukee, WI. Ace later worked under his mentor Sam Bielinski at Atomic Tattoo until he moved to the Bay Area in 2017 to tattoo alongside Joey Cassina at Ocean Avenue Tattoo. Ace is a Trans man who has stories about tattooing earlier in his career as a femme presenting lesbian woman. From local street shops to private studios, Ace tells all about his experiences and how moving to the Bay changed his life forever. Ace shares stories with us about finding the right shop to thrive in and self motivated mantras on inner peace and staying kind; when you can, of course.
