My most recent piece was inspired by personal transformation. Shedding old trauma and pain to embrace strength and rebirth. It represents surviving life’s battles, learning to trust my instincts, and moving through the world with power and grace, just like a cunning serpent. While also serving as a representation of my strong spiritual and medical background.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?I am the story of survival and evolution. I honor the souls who came before me, and I wear resilience like armor. I’m a visual reminder that beauty and strength are often born from pain, and that growth never stops. I represent the duality of existence.
What would you do with the $25,000?I’d use it to send my brother to school. I want him to advance himself and experience the same opportunities that having an education has afforded me.
