What inspired your most recent tattoo?

The most recent tattoo I got was from a former tattoo artist who lost his home, I gave him a place to sleep in a home he could call his own. I wanted to help him get back to what he used to love which was creating art through tattoos.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

My ink would say I love you. They're all a representation of what I love, who I love and why. My son, those I've lost and the passions I have are the pieces of art on my body. A reminder to keep an open heart despite life trying to close it down.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would start with catching up medical bills, breaking free from the chains that have been my disease and use the financial blessings to do that, then after, take my family and go on a much needed getaway. Once I come back I will continue my ink journey, finding more to love everyday while also helping my son accomplish his dreams.
